Upgrade to breathtaking NVMe speed
It's time to maximise your PC's potential with our SSD 980. Whether you need a boost for gaming or a seamless workflow for heavy graphics, the 980 is the smart choice for outstanding SSD performance, and it's backed by an NVMe interface and PCIe 3.0 technology.

Packed with speed
Get right to it. The 980 harnesses nearly all the speed advantages of PCIe 3.0 through HMB* technology and NVMe efficiency. The DRAM-less design delivers exceptional value, achieving breakneck sequential read/write speeds up to 3,500/3,000 MB/s**, and over 6.2x*** the speed of SATA SSDs.

Keep moving with Full Power Mode
Keep your SSD running for consistent high performance with Full Power Mode. Switch on the Samsung Magician software to always keep your SSD in active mode and instantly jump between intensive work with huge files, graphics-heavy games and normal PC usage.

Built for the long run
Keep your files safe with an SSD that's in it for the long haul. Rest assured with up to 600 TBW* and a 5-year limited warranty**. The 980's optimised endurance comes with reliability, thanks to Samsung's in-house solutions, from the state-of-the-art controller to V-NAND and the latest firmware.

Reliable thermal control
High-performance SSDs usually require high-performance thermal control. To ensure stable performance, the 980 uses nickel coating to help manage the controller's heat level and a heat spreader label to deliver effective thermal control of the NAND chip.
