When Samsung launched its 990 Pro family of SSDs for retail market last year, it only introduced 1 TB and 2 TB models, surprisingly omitting premium high-capacity 4 TB version. Now, the company is about to correct this wrong by launching 4 TB version this fall, the world’s largest SSD supplier revealed in an X post.<\/p>\n

You wanted it so badly, we had no choice but to deliver. The 4TB 990 PRO by #SamsungSSD<\/a> is coming. Same blazing-fast storage with double the max capacity for gaming, video, 3D editing, and more. Stay tuned for more details. pic.twitter.com\/B3iRso9Q3p<\/a><\/p>\n

“You wanted it so badly, we had no choice but to deliver,” the company’s post reads<\/a>. “The 4TB 990 PRO by #SamsungSSD is coming. Same blazing-fast storage with double the max capacity for gaming, video, 3D editing, and more. Stay tuned for more details.”<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

From performance point of view, Samsung’s 990 Pro 4 TB drive<\/a> offer an up to 7,450 MB\/s sequential read speed and an up to 6,900 MB\/s sequential write speed, which is in line with what 1 TB and 2 TB models offer. As for random operations, the SSD achieves 1,400,000 IOPS for reads and 1,550,000 IOPS for writes, which is comparable to the performance of other flagship SSDs.<\/p>\n

Since Samsung’s 990 Pro is a family of SSDs with a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, the 4 TB drive may not attract attention of owners of shiny new systems based on AMD Ryzen 7000-series or Intel Core 12000 and 13000-series processors. However, there are loads of PCs with M.2 slots featuring a PCIe 4.0 interface just waiting for an upgrade and 4 TB SSD makes a lot of sense these days given low prices of 3D TLC NAND.<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

According to Samsung’s spec sheets, the company intends to offer two versions of 990 Pro 4 TB SSDs: one with a simplistic graphene heat spreader to maximize compatibility with laptops, another with a larger aluminum heatsink to ensure consistent performance under high loads.<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

Samsung has not formally disclosed MSRP of its Samsung 990 Pro 4 TB SSD, though expect it to be priced in line with market realities. The drive is covered with a five-year limited warranty with an endurance rating of 2400 terabytes written (TBW).<\/p>\n
