It runs at up to 560MB\/s read, essentially the ceiling of the SATA interface, and Intelligent TurboWrite keeps write speeds high during large copies. Unlike many budget SATA drives, it has a proper 2GB DRAM cache, which keeps it responsive under mixed workloads. Samsung also tests it for compatibility with major chipsets, motherboards and NAS units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSATA or NVMe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your motherboard has a free M.2 NVMe slot, an NVMe drive such as the 990 EVO Plus is many times faster for not much more money. The 870 EVO makes sense for older PCs and laptops, consoles and devices that only take SATA, or as bulk storage next to an NVMe boot drive. You will need a SATA data cable and a SATA power connector in a desktop. No installation kit or cable is included, and laptops may need a cloning tool, which Samsung Magician provides for migration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSequential speeds up to the SATA limit with Intelligent TurboWrite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2GB Low Power DDR4 DRAM cache\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1,200 TBW endurance rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility tested with major chipsets, motherboards and NAS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSamsung Magician for health tracking, firmware updates and data migration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Samsung 870 EVO (MZ-77E2T0BW)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: 2TB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm factor: 2.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterface: SATA 6Gb\/s (backward compatible with SATA 3Gb\/s and 1.5Gb\/s)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNAND: Samsung V-NAND 3-bit MLC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eController: Samsung MKX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDRAM cache: 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSequential read: Up to 560MB\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSequential write: Up to 530MB\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRandom read (4KB, QD32): Up to 98,000 IOPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRandom write (4KB, QD32): Up to 88,000 IOPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRandom read (4KB, QD1): Up to 13,000 IOPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRandom write (4KB, QD1): Up to 36,000 IOPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEndurance: 1,200 TBW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: 2.5W average, 4.5W maximum, 35mW idle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncryption: AES 256-bit (Class 0), TCG\/Opal, IEEE1667\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMTBF: 1.5 million hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature: 0°C to 70°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShock: 1,500G, 0.5ms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 100 x 69.85 x 6.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: Approx. 46g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 5 Year limited or 1,200 TBW, whichever comes first\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Samsung 870 EVO 2TB SSD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty statement (no installation kit included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Samsung?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSamsung builds the NAND, controller, DRAM and firmware in its SSDs itself, and the EVO SATA line has been a standard upgrade drive for years.
