Smart FAQs

Is the Samsung 980 PRO compatible with my PCIe 3.0 motherboard?

Yes — the 980 PRO is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 slots; performance will be limited to the maximum bandwidth of PCIe 3.0.

Do I need a heatsink for the 980 PRO?

Most desktop motherboards and modern laptops have adequate airflow, but added cooling (heatsink or good case airflow) helps sustain peak performance under prolonged heavy loads.

What does the 5-year warranty cover?

Samsung’s limited 5-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and endurance-related failures within warranty terms and rated TBW limits. Vlebazaar assists with warranty support and claims.

Will this drive work in my PlayStation 5?

PS5 requires an M.2 NVMe SSD meeting Sony’s size and cooling requirements. The 980 PRO delivers the required performance; confirm physical dimensions and cooling solution before installing.

How much faster will this be than a SATA SSD or HDD?

Compared to SATA SSDs and HDDs, the 980 PRO delivers several times faster sequential and random speeds — significantly reducing boot, load, and transfer times.

Can I clone my current drive to the 980 PRO?

Yes — cloning software can migrate your OS and data. Ensure destination capacity is sufficient and follow best-practice cloning steps or contact Vlebazaar support for guidance.

How long will the SSD last under heavy use?

Lifespan depends on workload, but the 980 PRO’s endurance rating (TBW) and advanced NAND give long-term reliability for typical consumer and prosumer usage patterns.
