Is the 990 Pro a bargain at this price?
Less than €200, it’s a good deal for 2 TB, and with a heat sink, even if it’s still a pretty penny to pay for a simple SSD. An additional SSD, however, allows you to install many new games on your PS5 without having to delete your old titles, which can be practical. If you use it with a PC, it can give an aging computer a little facelift, by reducing startup time for example. The 990 Pro is also handy for emulating virtual machines, performing daily backups, and of course, storing your photo and video files.
If you are using the 990 Pro with a PC, make sure the motherboard supports the NVMe PCie 4.0 interface. For the Sony console, make sure you have the latest firmware version before installation. Follow our tips for installing the SSD in your PS5.
