If you buy one of the Samsung drives, make sure to check the version of the firmware and update if necessary. There was news a while back about the 2TB 980 Pro prematurely failing due to bad firmware. The problem isn't exclusive to this model, but it seems to be the most commonly failing model. The firmware update seems to have fixed the issue. https://www.pugetsystems.com/blog...liability/

Why do people keep saying to wait for BF? Every year, I see people on here complain about how BF deals are the worst they've ever been. What makes you think the SSD deals will be so good?

Is the 4tb good for a boot drive in a gaming laptop?

Edit: oh thought the 4tb was nvme too. Nope, SATA!

Why would you want a large boot drive? I thought the boot is for the OS and you use a large storage for storage
Both.

I bought this in July for Prime Day for this price (1TB, $50) and upgraded my boot drive from a 950 500gb to the 1tb 980. Also updated my CPU so I did a clean install of Win11

It's fast as a whistle & I can have more in the default Program Files etc

Hm.... I have this in my PS5, can I remove it to update the firmware via an external enclosure without losing the PS5 data?

Alternatively, you can have a secondary drive for all of your applications, downloads, etc and keep the boot drive as clean as possible.

Windows allows you to redirect everything, including where it downloads its own updates.

Why you would want to do this is simple: Small, quick, painless backups of your OS that are easy to restore and unburdened by clutter.

It used to be that it was recommended that you install Windows, update your drivers, and then install all of your must have applications before doing a backup.

But ever since fast internet has been available and everything is cloud based anyway, it makes little sense to try to restore a backup of an application that is going to try to update as soon as you launch it.

There's still exceptions, of course. If you have data caps and you play large games, not backing them up can easily eat up a quarter of your data cap for the month.

Is the 2TB significantly better than "Intel 670p Series 2TB SSD 3D QLC NAND Flash M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe" for $65 if my use case is to run virtual machines (plex, development,) and containers primarily.

Most firmware updates are destructive.

You'd have to transfer the data off if you really want to ensure it's kept.
As an aside: PS5 game data can only be backed up to the cloud.
