Today atAmazon, theSamsung 990 EVO SSDhas dropped to one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for the drive since it was first released. This SSD usually costs around $89, but Amazon offers it for just $79.
As of this writing, Amazon has not specified an expiration date for the discount, so we’re not sure how long the new price will be available, although it is marked as a limited offer. We had the opportunity to review theSamsung 990 EVOand found it reasonably run-of-the-mill, rating it at 3 out of 5 stars. In general, it’s a good drive, and this discount works in its favor, but the power efficiency left much to be desired.
