980

I had three drives go through RMA process with Samsung in 2026. Completely awful experience, most of the process occurs through text messaging. I paid $379 for a 2TB m2 Samsung Pro 980 in 2021, still within 5 year warranty period, after two months of having the drive, they offered me $179. When I as

It’s fair to be out of the loop. If you’re not a big MS shop or heavily into MDM there is a good chance you would never know. I had absolutely no idea about the 980 Pro bug (https://www.tomshardware.com/news/samsung-980-pro-ssd-failures-firmware-update) which I was told everyone knew about. I found

You're effectively trying to make an argument about this without providing proper details. So I'll do it for you. Smaller external HDDs that can be powered from a USB port are indeed built worse than larger HDDs which would require an external power supply to turn on (because they demand 12-volt pow

Yeah, as stated, Samsung OEM drives unfortunately dont work fully with Magician. This is a Lenovo drive, LEN(ovo) Part Number SSS0L25196, you can search for it.

That's not normal. I've had a sata Samsung 970 Evo for 6 years and I've been working it to death, constantly writing data on it because I compile stuff a lot and it's still working well and a sata Patriot ssd I don't remember the exact model of that's seen lighter usage, but still works fine after 3

It also depends on the type of files you’re handling and if RAW- the speed of the drive where your RAW cache is being stored. What files are you processing? Large RAW files? For example, I run an old Ryzen9 5900X with an RTX3090 & 32GB 4000mhz RAM on Samsung 980 Pro 4tb editing drives & Toshiba MG E

şu değişiklikleri yapman seni çok daha rahat ettirir. Seçtiğin B840 anakart aslında en alt seviye model olduğu için o sisteme yakışmaz onun yerine MSI veya Gigabyte tarafında sağlam bir B650 anakart seçmen sistemin ömrünü uzatır. İşlemci tarafında 7500X3D oyun için harika ama eğer bütçeni çok zorlam

you can always buy proven name brands in SSD like the WD blue or black (the ones who go the same as yours in the 4th gen) and the samsung 980 or 990 or 9100 (5th gen)
