Although the Samsung 990 Pro Series offers the same endurance rating as the WD Black SN850X NVMe SSD, it provides 256-bit AES encryption, a security feature missing in the WD model. This makes it slightly more expensive, too, as the 990 Pro’s 1TB (600 TBW) storage variant costs $89.99, whereas the 2TB (1,200 TBW) variant costs $159 for the models without a heatsink. Getting the trims with a heatsink adds $10 to the base and $20 to the top storage variant.
The storage drive matches its rated sequential read/write speed of 7,450/6,900 MB/s, making it one of the best SSDs in the segment. Along with the drive, you get Samsung’s Magician Utility and Data Migration app, which help install firmware upgrades, troubleshoot, and transfer data. When it comes to assurance, the company provides up to five years warranty on the product or until you utilize the TBW limits, which are fairly decent.
It is noteworthy that the Samsung 990 Pro series is ideal for most creative and professional use cases, but its gaming benchmark scores shy away from others on the list.
