SAMSUNG 9100 PRO 8TB M.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD

Description

Overview

The SAMSUNG 9100 PRO 8TB is a high-capacity M.2 NVMe drive that pairs Samsung V‑NAND TLC with an in‑house controller and 8GB LPDDR4X cache to deliver PCIe® 5.0 performance in a single M.2 2280 module. It is intended for high‑end desktops, workstations and devices that support PCIe Gen5 M.2 slots and need very large local storage without sacrificing sequential throughput.

Key features

• Capacity: 8TB in M.2 2280 form factor (model MZ‑VAP8T0BW)
• Interface: PCIe® 5.0 x4, NVMe™ 2.0 (backward compatible with PCIe 4.0/3.0)
• Sequential performance (up to): Read 14,800 MB/s, Write 13,400 MB/s
• Random I/O (QD256, Thread 32): Read up to ~2,200,000 IOPS, Write up to ~2,600,000 IOPS
• DRAM cache: 8GB LPDDR4X; NAND: Samsung V‑NAND TLC
• Endurance & warranty: 4,800 TBW or 5 years limited warranty (whichever comes first)

Notes on compatibility & installation

• The 8TB module is double‑sided and has a greater thickness than lower capacities—check your host device for M.2 height/clearance before installation.
• There are heatsink and non‑heatsink variants (model codes such as MZ‑VAP8T0CW for the pre‑fitted heatsink). Heatsink variants use different box dimensions and may carry different EANs; verify the exact model code if you require a heatsink version.
• The 9100 PRO is compatible with PlayStation®5 and client PCs that provide a suitable PCIe Gen5 M.2 slot; it is also backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 slots but will operate at the lower link speed.

This description is based on official Samsung technical documentation and product listings. Before purchase, confirm the exact model/box contents (heatsink vs non‑heatsink) and measure your motherboard or device M.2 bay for clearance, especially for the 8TB double‑sided module.
