ICYMI: Samsung 990 Pro 4TB, the fastest NVMe Gen4 SSD is still the cheapest [Update]

Update: The Samsung 990 Pro 4TB is even cheaper now at just $249.99. The 2TB is too which is now just $119.99 (All buying links below).


If you have been following Neowin for the last several months or so, you may have noticed that solid-state drive (SSD) prices have dropped quite a lot though analysts say NAND as well as DRAM prices could be going up again.

Except for the latest PCIe Gen5 NVMe drives (which are totally unusable without heatsinks), most of the previous-gen NVMe SSDs, as well as external portable drives, have dropped in price.

However, you can still grab one of the fastest Gen4 models, the Samsung 990 Pro as Newegg and Amazon are still selling the 4TB and 2TB variants of the SSD at its lowest-ever price of just $280 $250 (buying links towards the end of the article).
