Prices run a bit high (but you get what you pay for)
Despite the 960 EVO and PRO being at the top of our performance charts for over a year, the competition was starting to close in, and Samsung needed to hold them at bay. The now unified design enabled Samsung to (finally) offer the same 5-year warranty fo...
As our testing revealed, Samsung's 970 Pro 1TB is without question the best performing flash-based consumer SSD you can buy at this time and likely will remain so for the foreseeable future.The advantage that 2-bit flash has over 3-bit manifests itself mo...
The Samsung 970 Pro is one of the fastest SSDs we've ever tested. It's record-breaking in numerous benchmarks and, even when other drives are quicker, it's never far behind.It has exceptional endurance ratings too. The five-year warranty is a welcome addi...

Now that the prices of SSDs are starting to fall again, the competition is starting to take off again. Especially the new models from Crucial and Samsung bring some life back to the business, which was badly needed in this market. Last year there were few...

The fastest SSD money can buy, Reliable for years, Substantially higher write speeds
Not much faster than rivals, Slightly pricier than competitors, Read speeds remain the same
The Samsung 970 Pro retains its crown as the king of solid-state drives, but it's a title being challenged by even Samsung's own products. Samsung has become its own worst enemy by making the 970 Evo so much better, to the point where it barely lags behin...

For a while there was little to experience on the ssd market. Now that prices have started to go down again and competition is increasing, Samsung feels obliged to finally release new high-end SSDs. The 970 Evo and 970 Pro are not a revolution, but evolut...

Performance, Endurance, Magician software
No 2TB option as yet, Expensive
Ever since Samsung released the 960 PRO it has been king of the hill in the high-end performance NVMe segment of the consumer market, which is pretty remarkable when you consider how long it has been around. But just recently there has been a serious chal...
Amazingly fast, Stylish design, M.2 Compact form factor, Phoenix controller, 2-bit 64-layer MLC V-NAND, Improvement over the 960 PRO, 5-year warranty
Pricey
If there was such a thing as a perfect SSD recipe, it would appear Samsung are pretty darn close to a culinary masterpiece, so to speak. The Phoenix Controller married to 64-layer 2-bit MLC V-NAND provides blistering performance; even-more-so than the pre...
Class-leading performance, MLC flash, Amazing endurance, Excellent software package, Full disk encryption
Expensive, Really expensive, No 2TB option
The best just got better. But high prices will keep all but professional users away from the Samsung 970 Pro. If your workload involves applications with heavy sequential write workloads, there is nothing comparable on the market today.$629.99MSRPMOREBe...
