(Bargains) Samsung 9100 PRO 4TB M.2 PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe SSD, Black

The Samsung 9100 PRO is an internal solid-state drive built on the M.2 2280 form factor, leveraging the high-speed PCIe 5.0 x4 interface. This drive provides a 4TB storage capacity designed for high-end systems, professional workstations, and advanced gaming setups requiring maximum throughput. Sequential data transfer speeds are rated up to 14,800 MB/s for reading and 13,400 MB/s for writing, enabling rapid data access and accelerated application loading across demanding workloads.

Thermal management is integrated through a factory-installed heatsink, which is essential for maintaining sustained performance and preventing thermal throttling under heavy load, a crucial factor for PCIe 5.0 technology. The drive utilizes V-NAND TLC flash technology and supports the NVMe 2.0 protocol for minimized latency. Reliability specifications include an endurance rating of 2400 TBW and a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1.5 million hours.

Data security is addressed via support for AES 256-bit hardware encryption. The unit operates with a compact physical profile, measuring 8.88 mm in height with the integrated heatsink, ensuring compatibility with standard motherboard M.2 slots built to accommodate higher-profile components.
