Samsung Electronics America, a world leader in advanced memory technology, today announced pre-order availability for the 8TB 9100 PRO and 9100 PRO with Heatsink. Featuring blazing fast speeds and our largest capacity, these drives are designed to deliver next-gen performance – offering the ultimate storage solution for your digital life.

“From those with heavy data workloads to high-performance gamers, we recognized a clear need to innovate memory technology to support users as they push the bounds of what’s possible in their work,” said Jim Kiczek, Vice President of Memory Product Marketing at Samsung Electronics America. “The 9100 PRO SSD establishes a new era of performance to help them achieve exactly that. With more storage, even better speeds, improved power efficiency and seamless reliability, the lineup empowers users to continue innovating without storage limitations.”

Enhanced Performance and Power Efficiency to Turbocharge Every Task

The 9100 PRO SSD boasts lightning-fast PCIe® 5.0, enabling the drive to achieve up to 14,800/13,400 MB/s1 sequential read/write speeds – moving data twice as fast as the previous generation. Plus, with random read/write speeds of up to 2,200K/2,600K IOPS, you can tackle massive files or access your favorite games and apps faster than ever before.

The 9100 PRO series also uses less power than before, thanks to an advanced 5nm controller. And, the 9100 PRO with Heatsink offers an additional layer of thermal control, with less energy consumption for a cooler, longer-lasting drive. In fact, the 9100 PRO delivers up to 49% enhanced power efficiency compared to its predecessor, and packs performance into a low profile as slim as .44”2.
