The Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink is a 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 2280 SSD with sequential speeds up to 7,450MB/s read and 6,900MB/s write, suited to users seeking fast storage for gaming, demanding computing, or workstation tasks.
Recommended For
- PS5 owners who need 2TB of internal game storage and want an M.2 drive with its heatsink already installed; reviews show game loading is fast, though gains over other capable SSDs can be small in some games.
- Video editors and data-focused PC users who regularly move large project files or datasets and can use the drive in a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot; testing found strong write performance in large-file workloads.
- PC builders who want a high-end PCIe 4.0 drive for gaming and demanding desktop workloads, and whose motherboard has clearance for the preinstalled heatsink.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- A PS5 owner running out of internal storage can add the 990 PRO to keep more games installed; it provides fast access to the expanded library, though load times may be close to those from the console’s built-in SSD.
- A PC user moving large files, such as video footage or project folders, can spend less time waiting for transfers than with a slower drive; the benefit depends on the other drive and the rest of the system.
- A PC gamer adding a fast game drive can install a large library and get responsive game loading; compared with other modern PCIe 4.0 SSDs, the difference in game load times may be small, and the drive does not increase frame rates.
- A video editor or other creative user can keep active projects and large media assets on the drive, helping file transfers and asset loading feel quicker; editing performance still depends on the computer and software.
- Someone upgrading a compatible desktop or workstation can use the 990 PRO as a fast primary drive for apps and working files, reducing waits during file operations; the advantage is most noticeable with storage-heavy tasks rather than routine light use.

Reference Q&A
Q: Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink or WD_BLACK SN850X 2TB: which should I buy?
A: Choose the Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink if you want a drive with a pre-installed heatsink and slightly higher rated sequential speeds: up to 7,450/6,900 MB/s read/write, versus 7,300/6,600 MB/s for the SN850X. Both are high-performance PCIe 4.0 options; the SN850X is a sensible alternative when it costs less or suits your preferred setup. For PS5 use, compare the specific heatsink version and price.
Q: Is the 990 PRO with Heatsink worth upgrading to from a 980 PRO?
A: The 990 PRO is a worthwhile upgrade when your work includes frequent large file transfers or other storage-heavy tasks: its 2TB model is rated up to 7,450/6,900 MB/s, compared with 7,000/5,100 MB/s for the 980 PRO, and Samsung reports higher random performance. For a PC used mainly for gaming or everyday tasks, the 980 PRO may be sufficient; the upgrade is more compelling when you need the added throughput or the 990 PRO’s integrated heatsink.
Q: Should I get the 990 PRO with Heatsink or the version without one?
A: Choose this heatsink model for a PS5 or a compatible PC that does not have a suitable M.2 heatsink, since the drive includes cooling hardware. Choose the bare 990 PRO if your motherboard already provides an M.2 heatsink or your device needs a lower-profile drive; check the system’s available clearance before buying.
Q: Is this SSD suitable for expanding a PS5’s storage?
A: Yes. The 2TB 990 PRO with Heatsink is a PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 drive listed as compatible with PlayStation 5. Check the console’s installation guidance and confirm the model number is MZ-V9P2T0CW.
Q: Will the heatsink version fit in my laptop or desktop?
A: It fits only if the device has a compatible M.2 2280 NVMe slot and enough room for the attached heatsink. Check the device’s clearance and support requirements before buying; some laptops and compact systems may not accommodate it.
Q: Does this model include a heatsink?
A: Yes. This specific 2TB model, MZ-V9P2T0CW, has an integrated heatsink. Confirm the model number when ordering, since 990 PRO versions without a heatsink are also sold.
Q: Is this SSD a good fit for gaming and demanding PC workloads?
A: It is designed for compatible PCIe 4.0 systems and offers up to 7,450 MB/s sequential reads and 6,900 MB/s sequential writes, with 2TB of capacity. Actual performance depends on the host system and workload.
Q: Will the 2TB 990 PRO with heatsink work as a PS5 storage upgrade?
A: It is specified as PS5-compatible and includes an integrated heatsink. A YouTube installation video features the 2TB heatsink model; follow the PS5’s installation instructions and check that the drive is seated correctly.
Q: Is the 990 PRO’s extra speed worth paying more for if I’ll use it only in a PS5?
A: Not necessarily. Its rated speeds are up to 7,450 MB/s read and 6,900 MB/s write, but Reddit users note that a PS5 may not use the drive’s full rated speed. Compare its price with other compatible drives; the higher specification alone does not guarantee a noticeable gaming benefit.
Q: Should I choose the 990 PRO with a heatsink or the version without one?
A: The heatsink version offers an integrated cooling solution, which Reddit PS5 discussions identify as a useful fit for console installation. For a PC, check whether your motherboard already has an M.2 heatsink and enough clearance before choosing the heatsink model.
