Samsung’s flagship SSD product, the Samsung 990 PRO, which was released in the summer months, started to cause problems. Incoming reports show that complaints about durability are increasing.

What is the Samsung 990 PRO SSD problem?

The Samsung 990 PRO SSD model rises to 7450MB/s read speeds and 6900MB/s writes speeds. The random performance is 1400K IOPS in read and 1550K IOPS in write. Thus, it is an important support in games and professional works. The map loading time in Forspoken is only 1 second.

Samsung’s new controller is 50 percent more energy efficient than the previous generation. For each capacity, LPDDR4 buffer memory has been added as GB as its capacity. The total write life is determined as 600TB-1200TB-2400TB.

According to the data obtained in the Samsung Magician application, the usage health of the drive is declining rapidly. Users have seen 99 percent health after doing a clean software installation on a new drive. In the following days, even with a standard use, health decreased by 1 percent every day.

The rapid decline in drive health was actually a common problem in the early days of SSD products, but its emergence in the flagship product causes criticism from users. Some users even stated that even entry-level SSD products have experienced an unprecedented decline. It is stated that Samsung did not listen to the complaints and returned the SSD products sent to the technical service on the grounds that there was no problem.
