PM981

I contacted the support. Dear Samsung Support Team, I am writing to you today not with a complaint, but with a testimonial about the incredible durability of your V-NAND technology. I have been using a Samsung PM981 256GB (MZVLB256HAHQ) in a high-load environment hosting an Arma 3 server. According

After swapping the PM991 ssd with a PM981 I decided to try hackintoshing and it works pretty well. Did the EFI mostly myself but pulled a few things from valonxy’s T480 EFI. The touch screen etc. all work, the only thing that doesn’t is thunderbolt 3 but since I am probably not going to use it I am

The SSDs in my 5 year old pc are still 99% health (Samsung PM981 and PNY CS3030), it's not really a thing to worry about for normal use unless you are writing hundreds of GB everyday or mining crypto. Of course, failures can still happen with any brand, its still best to have multiple backups of imp

I wanted a rig to last me years from owning an am4 rig with 5800x. Generally I prefer picking and choosing used components as it’s massively cheaper like Samsung pm981 it’s. High endurance fast SSD vs new crucial and kioxia which aren’t the best quality and the Samsung 990 series which run too hot.

Yes. but PCI-e 4 is fully backwards compatible. If anything, fast PCI-e 4.0 SSDs like the aforementioned Samsung 990Pro saturate the bus in every scenario. PCI-e 3.0 x4 has a maximum realistic throughput of somewhere between 3500-3700 Gb/s. which is easily surpassed by modern SSDs. Samsung 990 Pro r

I just got one this week for a steal in France, in mint condition, barely used. Battery had 6, yes, 6 cycles on it! The keyboard has no wear on the keys whatsoever, brand new, with 6 cycles, previous owner had barely time for a running-in of the battery! 32GB, PCIe card reader, 512GB SSD, IR face re

I’m not going through all those. Buy a proper brand one that won’t fail like a Samsung or crucial and consider getting a used one like a Samsung PM981.

Well I can’t recommend any of those brands it’s like throwing your money away owning those where as a Samsung pm981 out of an old hp will last years

I have the oem samsung pm981, it does the job and feels quite fast despite being limited to x2 pcie lanes..

I picked it up yesterday and turned out that it had Windows installed. Seems to work fine for now and I’m thinking to keep it. The battery does say it’s over 99%. Though I might not upgrade the RAM (DDR4-3200), looks like they go for over $100 ! I might have an extra SSD at home in case I want to ge
