New boot drive, Easy install. Took 16 minutes. Samsung Magician worked flawlessly.
I downloaded Samsung Magician as suggested in the product documentation. It detected the M.2 drive immediately even though it hadn't been initialised, which I did. I then found the 'Data Migration' option. Selected my current Boot drive and was prompted to select the drive to migrate to ( the Samsung 990 Pro) selected 'Start' It took 16 minutes to clone my boot drive to the Samsung. I had to restart the PC. and went into the BIOS to select the new drive as the boot drive. When windows restarted, the Samsung was labeled as the C: drive (boot) and my old C: drive was re-labeled as the I: drive. That was it. No need to mess around with partition sizes, drive renaming or anything like that. Absolutely fantastic trouble free installation. I'm not sure if I actually needed to initialise the new drive, but it didn't cause any issues. Very happy customer. I definitely would recommend the Samsung SSD 990 Pro 1Tb because of the ease of installation as a new boot drive.

Fast, easy to install, and great performance
I picked this up mainly for gaming and video editing. It came in simple but effective packaging, was easy to install, and was quickly enabled using Windows Disk Manager.Running WinSAT gives the following results:Disk Random 16.0 Read: 2259.58 MB/sDisk Sequential 64.0 Read: 6100.51 MB/sDisk Sequential 64.0 Write: 5351.59 MB/sCompared to my Crucial M.2 drive, this is a noticeable improvement. Load times are quicker, and everything just feels more responsive.Only thing missing was the motherboard screw, which would’ve been handy. Other than that, no complaints.Very pleased so far.

PS5 Storage
This is a needed item if you are on your PS5 consistently as your storage runs out very quickly, 500 GB is not enough.It was easy to install, it's compatible, the boot time is instant, it's very reliable, there is little to no noise.This item isn't necessarily only for the PS5, you can also install it on other consoles or your PC/laptop.Anyway, you are paying for a quality item and it's worth it.

Fast but with some issues
This drive has been reviewed to deah so I will just point out some issues I ran into.- It does not support 4k LBA format, just standard 512. Yes, it is still fast despite this but considering Samsung's OEM versions (PM9A1, older PM981(a), etc.) support it - it is a strange omission.- At least on my systems, based on Asus Z590, Z790 it throws WHEA warnings (corrected errors) that seem to be due to PCIe state transition (L1/L2). These can go if you disable PCIe power management or put the drive in "high performance" via Samsung' Magician but this should not be needed.Not everyone seems to be affected and other drives are reported to cause it but I have never come across these before having had many various drives.- Firmware by now has sorted the high wear-out issues but to be honest it should have never happened considering the long history Samsung have developing SSDs.All in all, I prefer the WD SN 850 X/P series at similar cost that supports 4k LBA and does not seem to throw any warnings. But you make your own choice, pity there are not many other choices at the high end.
