Samsung 970 EVO 500GB NVMe M.2 SSD - PCIe 3.0 x4

High NVMe speeds

The Samsung 970 EVO uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface and the NVMe protocol, allowing the SSD to reach considerably higher speeds than traditional SATA SSDs.

The maximum sequential read speed is up to 3,400 MB/s and the write speed can reach 2,300 MB/s. This means short loading times and fast file transfers.

500GB storage capacity

With 500GB of storage, the SSD offers enough capacity for an operating system, programs, documents, games and other files.

The combination of speed and capacity makes the 970 EVO suitable as a primary system drive or as fast extra storage in a compatible computer.

Compact M.2 2280 form factor

The SSD uses the popular M.2 2280 form factor and connects directly to a compatible motherboard.

This means no separate SATA or power cables are needed and the SSD takes up hardly any space in a desktop PC or laptop.

Samsung V-NAND technology

The 970 EVO uses Samsung V-NAND memory. This technology is developed to combine high performance, reliability and efficient data management.

Together with the Samsung Phoenix Controller, this ensures stable performance during everyday use and more intensive applications.

Up to 450,000 IOPS

In addition to high sequential speeds, the SSD delivers strong performance for random read and write operations.

The maximum random write speed is up to 450,000 IOPS. This is especially noticeable when opening programs, multitasking and working with many small files.

300 TBW endurance

The 500GB version of the Samsung 970 EVO has a rated endurance of up to 300 TBW.

This indicates how much data can be written over the lifetime of the SSD and makes it suitable for long-term everyday use.

Support for TRIM and S.M.A.R.T.

The SSD supports TRIM, which allows unused memory blocks to be managed efficiently to maintain performance over the long term.

Via S.M.A.R.T., important status information of the SSD can be read and checked.

256-bit AES encryption

The Samsung 970 EVO supports hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption and security standards such as TCG/Opal and IEEE1667.

This gives the SSD support for extra protection of stored data in compatible systems and configurations.

Samsung Magician software

With Samsung Magician, you can view and manage various SSD information and settings.

The software lets you check the health, performance and firmware of a compatible Samsung SSD, among other things.

Suitable for desktops and laptops

The 970 EVO can be used in desktops and laptops with a compatible M.2 slot that supports NVMe and PCIe.

Before buying, always check that the device supports an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD via PCIe. A physical M.2 slot does not automatically mean that NVMe is supported.
