The Ultimate SSD

Reach max performance of PCIe® 4.0*. Experience longer-lasting, opponent-blasting speed. The in-house controller's smart heat control delivers supreme power efficiency while maintaining ferocious speed and performance, to always keep you at the top of your game.

The 990 PRO is a new memory product with superior performance forgamers and heavy users. The 990 PRO is a new memory product with superior performance forgamers and heavy users.

* PCIe 4.0 best theoretical sequential read is 8000 MB/s - 990 PRO reaches 7450 MB/s.

PCIe 4.0 Speed Maximised

Huge speed boost. 990 PRO offers sequential* read/write speeds up to 7,450/6,900 MB/s reaching near the max performance of PCIe® 4.0. 40% and 55% faster random read/write speeds than 980 PRO 2TB - up to 1,400K/1,550K IOPS, while 4TB has an even higher random read speed of up to 1,600K IOPS.

The 990 PRO speed to reaches near max PCIe 4.0 performance overthe PCIe 3.0. with a sequential read speed of 7450 MB/s. The 990 PRO speed to reaches near max PCIe 4.0 performance overthe PCIe 3.0. with a sequential read speed of 7450 MB/s.

* Sequential and random write performance was measured with Intelligent Turbo Write technology being activated. Intelligent Turbo Write operates only within a specific data transfer size. Performance may vary depending on SSD’s firmware, system hardware & configuration and other factors. Test system configuration: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor CPU@3.80GHz, DDR4 3600MHz 16GBx2 (PC4-25600 Overclock), OS - Windows 10 Pro 64bit, Chipset - ASRock-X570 Taichi. To maximise the performance of the 990 PRO, please check whether your system supports PCIe 4.0 at the Intel or AMD website.

Breakthrough power efficiency

More power-efficient performance. Higher performance usually consumes more power but, 990 PRO uses less power with up to 50% improved performance per Watt over 980 PRO*. This low-power design makes max PCIe® 4.0 performance possible with optimal power efficiency.

990 PRO has a 50%" improvement in sequence write speed at 1,319MB/Watt, over 980 PRO’s 877 MB/Watt. 990 PRO has a 50%" improvement in sequence write speed at 1,319MB/Watt, over 980 PRO’s 877 MB/Watt.

* 980 PRO Sequential Read/Write - 1,129/877 MB/Watt, 990 PRO Sequential Read/Write - 1380/1319 MB/Watt based on internal test result of 1TB capacity model.

Smart thermal solution

Speed beyond the heat. The nickel-coated controller and cutting-edge thermal control algorithm manage heat for unwavering performance. The heat spreader label controls NAND chip heat, while Dynamic Thermal Guard keeps temperatures optimal.

The 990 PRO consists of a nickel-coated controller and a heatspreader label. The 990 PRO consists of a nickel-coated controller and a heatspreader label.
