Went to check the 2TB, after the 1TB was posted and noticed that it has dropped to under $300.

Cheaper than previous deal post

  • The added heatsink elevates speed, power efficiency and thermal control to maximise gameplay
  • Samsung’s nickel-coated controller reliably manages NAND chip heat levels
  • The 980 PRO's heat spreader label allows thermal control access
  • The 980 PRO Heatsink uses data centre SSD technology to dissipate heat, for continuous ideal performance gaming on most consoles and PC systems

Good for PS5 as well.

      Wait for PCIe gen 5 SSDs. Also, Samsung 990 Pro announced (PCIe gen 4 x4, but probably Samsung trying to bridge the gap to the other top end SSDs).

      • Nunubuffs on 30/08/2022 - 20:14
        +3

        PCIe gen 5 SSDs will be crazy expensive tho and the speed differences will be minimal. This is a pretty good price.

        • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 20:17

          Samsung 990 Pro already announced. Will gen 5 SSDs essentially start with controller going 16 channels or the actual TLC NAND will also improve?

          PCIe gen 5 is expensive, Ryzen 7000 series build will be cheap?

            +2

            @netsurfer: Yeah but I mean you can save the costs of PCIe gen 5.0 ssd for MOBO, CPU, DDR5 ram and the GPU itself.

            • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 20:22

              @Nunubuffs: You already made up your mind so just go for it. No point to ask.

              Personally, if I am aiming for PCIe gen 5, I'd wait rather than buying more PCIe gen 4 SSDs. 980 Pro, isn't that great and there is additional slow down with SSDs through AMD chipset (instead of through CPU PCIe lanes - that's expected). The new firmware doesn't actually make it run faster (actually, I found it runs slower). I already have 980 Pro so I cannot offer objective opinion. With 990 Pro out, I am interested to find out more about 990 Pro (and I find it odd Samsung is releasing another PCIe gen 4 SSD series).

      • Sleepycat3 on 30/08/2022 - 20:50
        -1

        I'd buy this over the 990 Pro. If I wanted 990 Pro write speeds, I'd get the Kingston KC3000 2TB instead.

        • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 21:09
          +1

          990 Pro should have a larger and faster dynamic SLC cache (that's the main bit that matters). 980 Pro's weakness is that it was released really early (so its SLC cache is smaller than competition). Like I mentioned, Samsung was unable to address performance issue with firmware update (maybe not sufficient spare cells to expand the cache). Also, Samsung better made 990 Pro NVMe 1.4 this time.

          KC3000 2TB isn't the SSD to get for write speed (coz. it's true sustained write speed is in the same ballpark as 980 Pro 2TB). The way it is done, it doesn't top the sustained write chart (it doesn't to do SLC cache recovery fast enough). There is a fair amount of FOMO factor for this, rather than 980 Pro is top notch. The reason I bought 980 Pro was because the price was good (and honestly it was still a FOMO purchase).

          Of course you can use 990 Pro is going to be expensive as an excuse now, but unless you really need a SSD now, you don't have to buy 990 Pro right away. I just want to see whether we have another good choice other than Phison E18 based SSDs.

          • Sleepycat3 on 30/08/2022 - 21:33

            @netsurfer: The KC3000 2TB exhausts its SLC cache at 640GB sustained writing. Not sure what a 990 Pro would do with its SLC, but I wouldn't be speculating that its SLC cache would be larger than the KC3000 until the actual reviews are out. You can't recover from SLC exhaustion until the DRAM to SLC transfer is complete.

            Also, 640GB writes before SLC is exhausted would be sufficient for almost everyone, except those with 10 Terabit internet, which is almost no one.

            • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 21:36
              +1

              @Sleepycat3: When we look at sustained write, we care about its speed AFTER SLC cache is exhausted. There are SSDs with the same chipset which CAN recover later on. KC3000 simply doesn't recover and its TLC NAND write speed without SLC cache is the same as 980 Pro.

        • netsurfer on 31/08/2022 - 13:51

          I didn't neg your comment. Samsung is good at marketing for 990 Pro. Not only the performance specs are better (not just sequential, but also random read/write). It is also claiming the new controller is 50% more power efficient (+ other enhancement).

          Both Samsung and WD now have released drives that can compete with Phison E18. Obviously, price is a big factor for OZBers. However, I think more choices is a good thing.

  • Nunubuffs on 30/08/2022 - 20:18
    +1

    That 990 pro will probaly be 1.5x or double the price of the 980 pro.

    • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 20:30

      And you are certain 990 Pro won't push 980 Pro's price further down? There is also SN 850X. 990 Pro is still gen 4. My guess is that it could merely be a new controller.
      Right now is the best time to buy SSDs? Since we now know 980 Pro is no longer Samsung's PCIe gen 4 top SSD, it's time to re-evaluate its price accordingly perhaps.

      If you are after a PS5 SSD right now, then this is a good deal. PCs… Amazon UK keeps coming up with better deals lately.

      • Sleepycat3 on 30/08/2022 - 20:51

        If you look back a few months, the $300 price point is actually occupied by the 970 Evo Plus 2TB. So this is a good buy.

        • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 21:05

          If you take the heatsink into consideration, yes. However, we had some good SN850 deals lately. 980 Pro does have a smaller dynamic SLC cache and 970 Evo Plus now uses the same controller as 980 Pro (except Samsung blocks its PCIe gen 4 support). 970 Evo Plus also had a NAND chip downgrade recently.

          It's hard to evaluate SSD price now. Bought SN850 1TB recently for $149 so trying to re-adjust expectations. Yes, we can all come up with excuses to buy this.

      • chyawala on 31/08/2022 - 05:40

  • artxty on 30/08/2022 - 20:30

    Any good external enclosure for this that fits the heatsink?

    • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 20:36
      +1

      No. Also, it is an overkill because even if you go for a Thunderbolt 4 enclosure, it can at most do PCIe gen 3 x4. But, I guess you could use the excuse that sustained write is very important (but then I'm not sure 980 Pro is the one to get for that, it doesn't actually top the sustained write chart). USB 3.2 gen 2 is PCIe gen 3 x2 only. USB 3.2 gen 2x2 is PCIe gen 3 x4.

      Need to wait for Intel's Thunderbolt 5, and hopefully the speculation is true and Intel's Thunderbolt 5 will be based on PCIe gen 5.

    • Sleepycat3 on 30/08/2022 - 20:52

    Do you still need to update the firmware? I read late last year there were issues with getting the right speeds without an update.

    • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 21:22

      If you want to use it for a PS5, it is best you update the firmware on a PC first. Otherwise, don't get upset with rather low test figure after PS5 formatted the drive.

      However, honestly, if you just ignored that test figure, the drive does reasonably well on PS5 (even without firmware update). I reckon just do it (update the firmware) for peace of mind. You need to connect it to a PC first though (not through an enclosure).

  • javawoo on 30/08/2022 - 23:07

    Can this one be used for desktop PC with heatsink covered with mainboard?

    If yes, is it any better having heatsink ?

    • netsurfer on 30/08/2022 - 23:28

      You are better off using the included heatsink than the motherboard one. That's because the 2TB one is double sided and motherboard heatsinks only cover 1 side (the top side). Also, most SSDs with manufacturer's heatsinks would place the thermal pads at the right location (i.e. the controller) though they tend to also put some on the NAND chips.

    Samsung SSD's are problematic. They have a history of firmware issues for years from the old HDD's to SSD's. I've had multiple and some have had issues. But WD, I've had multiple and never an issue. I specifically bought the WD SN850 1TB for PS5, it is a better SSD and faster, no firmware update needed. I'll wait until the WD 2TB's drop in price before upgrading again or go with another brand, Samsung just don't make great storage drives imo.

    • netsurfer on 31/08/2022 - 15:47

      That's not true for WD/Sandisk. SN850 has the known issue where if you used it on X570 chipset's PCIe gen 4 slot, you need to upgrade the firmware (and WD does switch batches so certain newer batches lacked the firmware patch (I am assuming it is now addressed). Other WD NVMe SSDs also have that issue but due to not many users reported it, it is unclear WD provided the patch for them. Also, we do not know why WD doesn't use the right firmware in newer batches, instead of having this issue happening repeatedly.

      While I have had issues with Samsung SSDs, I cannot say WD/Sandisk ones are perfect (I have encountered issues). Also, SN750 SE has weird SLC recovery glitch during sustained write. It is doubtful WD will be able to fix it in firmware.

      I think it is not a good idea to go brand X is bad, best to list out the models. 980 Pro without firmware update on PS5 still works well in real life game tests. However, if you cared about the initial test figure, yes, update the firmware.

      • Justin9mm on 31/08/2022 - 16:15
        -1

        I never said WD's were perfect. I never said they don't have issues at all. I specifically commented on my experience and I said I've never had an issue. That I wouldn't buy a Samsung and I would go with another brand. I also stated Samsung don't make great drives in my opinion. Whether the 980 Pro works well in real game tests without the firmware update is beside the point, you pay for certain specs, you should get certain specs and a lot of casual PS5 gamers don't have the access/ability to upgrade the firmware. My comment is towards using for PS5 not PC.

        • netsurfer on 31/08/2022 - 20:43

          I didn't neg you comments.

          If we talked about PS5, its initial test was easily cheat-able. SN850's true NAND speed is inferior to 980 Pro. Also, the 2TB version of SN850 is better optimised. Also, multiple batches of SN850s are available. WD having the habit of doing dodgy stuff lately until they are caught (NAND swap on SN550). Not fixing a bug for newer batch of flagship SN850s isn't what I would describe as great.

          My issue with WD is one of my SSDs had re-allocated sectors 1 year after in use (haven't written that much). That's not enough for me get warranty replacement. I also had issue with some Samsung SSDs.

          WD SN850X is out, so is Samsung 990 Pro.

      • Graffin on 31/08/2022 - 17:38

        I've ordered one of the Samsung drives (it hasn't shipped yet)… I don't have a NVMe slot on my ancient PC, and seems my mates only have one slot which they're using for their Windows drive, so being able to update the firmware may prove to be tricky/costly if I have to get a local computer store to do the upgrade (one quoting me $99 for any diagnostic/upgrade).

        Would I be better off just going for the WD850? I know it's like $120ish more, but if it's a better drive and can just chuck it into my PS5 without any firmware upgrades then it might be worth paying a bit extra.

        Any advice from fellow PS5 users???

          +1

          That initial SSD speed test from PS5 doesn't mean much. ALL PCIe gen 4 SSDs cheat. The firmware merely let the 980 cheat correctly in that test like most other SSDs.

          Check the following youTube and decide.

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osMUt5nj7pU

          Just an FYI, I use an SSD that's inferior to 980 Pro in my PS5. For 980 Pro, I would use it in a PC. There are other people using cheat PCIe gen 4 SSDs on PS5. If you are so concerned, then get SN850 or Segate 530 (or wait for 990 Pro, SN850X).

          • Graffin on 31/08/2022 - 20:51

              @Graffin: SN850 fans will point out the update firmware if you want a better figure in the initial test on 980 Pro.

              I have both SN850 and 980 Pro. They are both okay (each has pros and cons). In the PC, I had to deal with SN850 doesn't run well on X570 chipset slot issue. Neither is top PCIe gen 4 SSDs, that's why 990 Pro and SN850X are announced.

              This one is OOS already so wait for the next cheap deal. This was a cheap 2TB with heatsink that's ready to be put straight into PS5. After the recent firmware upgrade, my cheap PCIe gen 4 SSD in PS5 is technically below 5000 mark (used to be 5650 in the initial dumb zero fill test Sony used to use), but I don't care.

              • Graffin on 31/08/2022 - 21:05

                @netsurfer: I already purchased the deal (and charge appears on my credit card), but it hasn't been shipped yet (and the cancel order button is still available).

                But, i'll go with your recommendation. I'll whack it into the PS5 and hope for the best. It is cheap, and hopefully lasts long enough til a 4Tb drive becomes affordable (i'm not even sure if 4Tb SSDs exist lol).

                • netsurfer on 31/08/2022 - 21:22

                  Some people reported they received 02/2022 batch, which apparently had new enough firmware (no firmware upgrade performed, PS5 reported newer speed). My 980 Pro was bought more than 1 year ago and like I mentioned, I leave better PCIe gen 4 SSDs in my PC. Hopefully, you get a new enough batch (though honestly, the PS5 initial dumb speed test is a joke).

        • Justin9mm on 02/09/2022 - 12:40

          Can't you just buy like a $20+ NVMe SSD enclosure, plug it into your PC and do a firmware update that way? Thought that would work?

          • Graffin on 02/09/2022 - 17:20

            @Justin9mm: Not sure. From what i've read, the drive's not properly detected if using an enclosure (or something to that effect), even on some systems not being able to update the firmware if it's not the OS drive on some AMD systems.

            I'll see if a friend of a friend of a friend has a spare NVMe slot, or just whack it in the PS5 and hope for the best. I'm hoping Samsung would have updated the firmware on these drives since they're "compatible with PS5". Maybe it was just the non-heatsink version which was out long before the heatsink version was that needed updating. Who knows.

    Does anyone know if the heatsink version can be used in Lenovo Tiny? For example, m920q. Wondering if the there is enough height clearance under the 2.5" drive tray

    Thx didnt need it so I bought one

    • CoronavirusVaccine on 06/09/2022 - 18:35

      Doesn't that give the manufacturer less incentive to reduce the price further?

        Bloody BargainKen - selfishly buying himself new toys and jacking up the price for the rest of us! Why, if I ever get my hands on you Kenny boy…

        At least I can imagine that in some alternate universe, good old BargainKen is being praised for his selfless efforts to stimulate economies of scale and continue his one man crusade to drive down SSD prices…

    Finally shipped!

    At least I can start migrating components, safe in the knowledge it should arrive soon…

    • RichardL on 06/09/2022 - 20:40

      Same here, finally shipped today.

      • UncleRico on 12/09/2022 - 15:26

        Arrived today, ahead of a scheduled delviery date of 24 Sep.

        Gotta love Amazon…

        • RichardL on 12/09/2022 - 15:30

          Mine is expected to be delivered tomorrow.

            @RichardL: You sir, are once again, a responsomatic 2000!

            Let's see who can put their new/migrated builds together first. (I suspect you'll have me covered there, as well…)

            • RichardL on 12/09/2022 - 16:07

              @UncleRico:

              (I suspect you'll have me covered there, as well…)

              I doubt it. Most likely won't migrate over and will do a fresh install (which is why I'll most likely put if off, until I make other upgrades).

      Got mine yesterday - not happy with Amazon UK just sending it in a cardboard sleeve with zero padding or protection. The Samsung box looked like it was crushed on one corner and something had torn through it leaving a hole. Didn’t seem to be where the SSD was sitting in the box so have no idea how it got there.

      Got a local computer store to check & update the firmware for only $20. Same firmware 4B2… they put 5B2… on it.

      Put it in the PS5 (hardest part was getting the faceplate off - seems you have to be a lil forceful). Read speed came up as 6646k/sec or something like that so I guess it works?

      In the YouTube videos I watched it shows up as Samsung 980 Pro 2Tb, but this one shows up as Samsung 980 Pro 2Tb with Heatsink on my PS5.

      See how it goes. So far so good.

      Thanks to the OP for posting the deal & netsurfer for the reassuring comments.

        Hey! Mine arrived, same production date. Going into PS5, 4B2 will have the higher speeds for PS5 so I’m happy to just put it straight into PS5. Is there a way to check firmware of SSD without putting in a computer? Thank you

        • Graffin on 28/09/2022 - 18:32

          There's no real answers on that. Most YouTube vids and reviews i've Googled don't even do benchmark tests on the 2Tb with heatsink - they're all using no heatsink, 3rd party heatsink, or using the 1Tb which would probably affect the speed slightly.

          I think the speed test Sony shows after formatting it could be all for show. The drive is capable of 7000Mb/sec (yes, I screwed up in my previous post). From the vids i've seen, those who had firmware 4B2 were getting 6400-6500. I got 6646 - whether the firmware update from 4B2 to 5B2 did anything… who knows. The guy that did it said he enabled some sort of "boost mode" when he updated it, but that's the first i've heard of any such thing.

          It works (touch wood). And, it's incredibly fast transferring data from the main SSD to the Samsung. Wow.

          I'd say just put it in the PS5 with 4B2. It'll be fine. If not, just ask a friend or local computer store if they'd be able to just update the firmware on it. I got lucky - when I initially asked, they said $99 for any diagnostic work (base price), but when I spoke with the tech in store, he did it for $20 as it was a pretty simple 5-10 minute thing he did on the spot whilst I waited.

          I don't think there's any way to check the firmware, or update it without a PC and a free slot. It doesn't seem to work in enclosures, or in some system's secondary slot (a bit fussy).

          I'm so thankful to the OP and Ozbargain, as i'd never have gone through with it if not for the <$300 price and super-helpful comments by fellow members on here!

    Anyone else get this message when checking the tracking status of their order?

    “Unfortunately, a problem occurred during shipping and we had to cancel your delivery. The package is being returned, and we will issue a refund within 3 - 5 business days after the return is processed. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience.”

    • pinchies on 12/09/2022 - 17:42

      What on earth?? That sucks! Can you get in touch with Amazon support to get more information?

      • VlVh on 12/09/2022 - 18:54

        Urgh. So it turns out the item was damaged in transit and subsequently returned to Amazon.

        Amazon AU weren’t able to send a replacement as the sale was done through Amazon UK, but they did say that I can order through an Amazon AU seller and they will refund the difference.

        So a pretty good result in the end.
