Samsung SSD 960 Pro 1TB m.2 NVMe

960 Pro 1TB m.2

The 1 TB Samsung SSD 960 Pro also knows as MZVKP1T0HMJP is an NVMe class, M.2 22x80 type solid state drive we first tested in 2017.

Here is our opinion on the product:

.... sequential read and write speeds approaching 2600 MB/s and 2000 MB/s, respectively. In comparison, the Samsung SM951 or Toshiba XG3 THNSN5256GPU7 offer about half the write speed each - Eurocom Sky X4C laptop review from 2018.
