What Buyers Say
Samsung 9100 PRO 1TB PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe M.2 2280
72 out of 100 medium confidence 11 reviews
The Samsung 9100 Pro is generally praised for its blazing-fast Gen5 speeds, with several users noting a noticeable improvement over Gen4 drives like the 990 Pro. However, one verified buyer reported a complete failure after less than two weeks, which is a significant concern. Most reviewers recommend it for high-end builds, especially with a heatsink, but caution that the speed boost may not be worth it for everyone.
Pros

- Noticeable improvement over Gen4
- Works with PCIe 4.0 boards
- Compatible with PS5 (with heatsink)
- High-quality build
Cons
- Reported failure within 2 weeks
- Requires heatsink for best performance
- Speed difference not noticeable for everyday tasks
- Not worth upgrading from Gen4 for some
