Know before you buy
The Samsung 980 uses the M.2 2280 form factor, which is the standard size for most modern laptops and desktop motherboards. Ensure your device has an available M.2 slot that supports the PCIe NVMe interface before purchasing.
This drive uses Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology to bypass the need for dedicated DRAM, allowing it to remain cost-effective while maintaining high speeds. It is an excellent choice for everyday computing, gaming, and productivity tasks, though heavy professional video editing may benefit more from a drive with dedicated DRAM.
Dynamic Thermal Guard is an integrated feature that monitors the drive's temperature and automatically adjusts performance to prevent overheating. This ensures the SSD maintains stable, consistent speeds during long file transfers or intensive workloads.
Yes, the Samsung 980 is fully compatible with Samsung Magician software. This tool allows you to monitor drive health, optimize performance, check for firmware updates, and manage security settings easily.
TBW stands for Terabytes Written, and the 600 TBW rating indicates the total amount of data you can write to the drive before the warranty coverage ends. For typical daily use, this rating is more than sufficient to last for many years.
