"If you've been running out of storage on your PC or PS5, or you just want an SSD that's faster than what you have, here's a great deal: the PCIe Gen 5-compatible 990 Evo Plus M.2 SSD from Samsung is selling at a bargain today, with its 2TB and 4TB versions selling for $99.99 and $199.99, respectively, at B&H Photo. If you want to hop on this deal before the prices go back up, you have until the end of the day."
"Even if you don't have a PCIe Gen 5 rig, complete with the latest motherboard, processor, RAM, and GPU, you can still benefit from the 990 Evo Plus. That's because all Gen 5 SSDs are backwards compatible with PCIe Gen 4 systems, meaning that it'll work in PCs with available M.2 slots and PlayStation 5 consoles alike (although, in the case of the latter, you'll need to install your own cheap heatsink to keep it running cool)."
Samsung's 990 Evo Plus M.2 SSD is offered at $99.99 for 2TB and $199.99 for 4TB at B&H Photo for a limited time, with the correct price reflected at checkout. The drive is PCIe Gen5-compatible and backwards compatible with PCIe Gen4 systems, so it will work in PCs with available M.2 slots and in PlayStation 5 consoles, though PS5 installations should include a heatsink to maintain cool operation. The 990 Evo Plus achieves sequential read speeds up to 7,250MB/s and sits slightly below the flagship 990 Pro, which is currently $169.99 for 2TB. The deal provides a cost-effective storage upgrade without requiring a full Gen5 rig.
