The Samsung 990 Evo Plus is a top-tier drive for your gaming PC and PlayStation 5. Exceeding Sony's minimum speed requirements, it boasts read speeds up to 7,250 MB/s and write speeds up to 6,300 MB/s. While not quite as fast as the 990 Pro, it's significantly faster than the standard 990 Evo, and the difference is negligible for most gamers. The key difference? This is a DRAM-less drive, utilizing HMB (host memory buffer) to leverage a small amount of your system RAM. Gamers won't notice a performance impact.

The 990 Evo Plus doesn't include a pre-installed heatsink. However, its efficient, single-sided design generates minimal heat, making a heatsink likely unnecessary, even in a PS5. While adding one offers extra peace of mind, it's not essential.
