The Samsung 990 Evo Plus is a powerhouse drive perfect for your gaming PC and PS5. It handily surpasses Sony's minimum speed requirements, boasting sequential read and write speeds of up to 7,250 MB/s and 6,300 MB/s respectively. While not quite as fast as the 990 Pro, it's significantly faster than the standard 990 Evo. The key difference? This drive lacks DRAM. However, for PS5 gaming, this is irrelevant. For PCs, the 990 Evo Plus utilizes HMB (host memory buffer), cleverly using a negligible amount of your system RAM—a difference gamers won't even notice.
This SSD doesn't include a pre-installed heatsink. But as a newer, single-sided design, it's power-efficient and generates minimal heat. This means it'll likely work flawlessly in your PS5 without thermal throttling. Adding a heatsink is purely optional, offering peace of mind at the cost of a few extra dollars.
