Today, Samsung officially announced a new PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD model called 9100 PRO, the successor to the 990 PRO. On this new product line, the Korean technology giant confidently promises "improved performance up to 99%" or almost double the speed compared to its predecessor, which was also highly appreciated.
In terms of performance, the company says the new 9100 PRO can achieve sequential read and write speeds of up to 14,800 MB/s and 13,400 MB/s respectively. In terms of random performance, the published numbers are 2,200K IOPS (input-output per second) and 2,600K IOPS for read/write respectively.
Notably, this is also the first time Samsung has brought an 8TB NVMe SSD to the masses, which is great considering the benefits of having a faster SSD for gaming thanks to modern technologies like DirectStorage, while game file sizes are getting larger.
Samsung also says that the "9100 PRO is designed with an advanced thermal management solution" - an important aspect since PCIe 5.0 SSDs are known to run hot. The new 9100 PRO comes with an 8.8mm thick heatsink for the 1TB to 4TB models and an 11.25mm thick heatsink for the 8TB model. The thicker heatsink on the 8TB model is nearly 27.85% thicker and should of course provide better heat dissipation, ensuring the SSD's performance is maintained when working continuously at high intensity.
Samsung said in a press release announcing the SSD 9100 PRO:
The SSD 9100 PRO has no official pricing yet, but Samsung India’s website currently lists the 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB variants at INR 14,999, INR 25,499, and INR 49,999, respectively. This equates to approximately $149.99, $254.99, and $499.99. The pricing for the 8TB variant has yet to be announced and will likely be revealed closer to the official launch in the second half of this year. Meanwhile, the remaining variants will be available and available for sale from March 18, 2025.
Large format printing has long faced criticism for its environmental impact. Traditional substrates, solvent-based inks, and short-lived promotional campaigns have all contributed to the perception that eye-catching graphics come at a high environmental cost.
