Review: A perfect high-performance NVMe pool for apps/containers in my custom TrueNAS box - I am using two of these 1TB drives in a custom NAS box I put together running TrueNAS. I have two 12TB HDD drives, two slower SSDs, and two of these great Samsung 1TB NVMe drives. While the majority of my backups are on the mirrored HDD drives, and the TrueNAS boot drives are the SSDs, I use these two Samsung NVMes as a high-performance NVME pool for storing apps, containers, metadata, VMs, databases, and PLEX metadata. This is ideal because the ZFS mirror offers redundancy for critical app data, low latency and high IOPS making it a great place for TrueNAS apps and datasets. These drives are the biggest real-world performance area of my NAS so I use it where speed matters most. The TrueNAS OS and temp jobs/work stay on the SSDs so they don't wear out these NVMes quickly. These drives are nice and fast for PCIe 4.0. They also were a great price at the time because of holiday pricing and they were on backorder for a bit, which caused the price to drop for a week, too. So the value couldn't be beat at the time. Samsung drives like these have never failed me, and some of my M.2 drives get quite a workout on my main desktop build! The only thing I would recommend with these drives is using a third-party heatsink on them that has a fan on it. It keeps these drives nice and cool during high loads. Without them, you run the risk of overheating and heat-related speed throttling, causing your drives to slow down while hot. So keep these drive cool by slapping a $20 M.2 heatsink+fan on there and never worry again! These drives were perfect for my new NAS, or for your next desktop PC drive replacement! They work great and are trouble-free for me so far. I will update if I ever run into any problems with them.
Review: Best gaming SSD on the market - Best Heatsink SSD on the market! Blazing fast, easy to install, great value (at the time i purchased it, it was great value), good quality, good heat management, etc. I added this bad boy to my Asus TUF gaming laptop and it works like a charm!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Blazing Fast, Compact, and Roomy – Perfect Main Drive
*by Y***O on December 14, 2025*

This Samsung 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD turned out to be one of those upgrades that quietly changes everything about how the PC feels. The small M.2 stick takes up almost no space on the motherboard, but it adds a huge amount of fast storage that makes the whole system feel cleaner and more modern. For size and storage, the 2TB capacity is a sweet spot. It is small and slim enough to disappear under a heatsink or alongside a big GPU, yet spacious enough to hold Windows, a big game library, and work files without constantly worrying about what to uninstall next. It feels like finally having “breathing room” on the main drive instead of constantly managing space. The design is simple and professional, with no unnecessary bulk or gimmicks—just a clean-looking drive that fits right into any build, whether flashy RGB or a more minimal setup. Day to day, the quality and performance really stand out: the PC boots quickly, games and apps launch almost instantly, and large file transfers finish much faster than before. It feels reliable, fast, and well built, and easily deserves a full five stars.
