Samsung 9100 PRO 1 TB — PCIe 5.0, roughly double Gen 4

14,700 / 13,300 MB/sPCIe 5.0 ×41 GB LPDDR4X600 TBW

The MZ-VAP1T0BW is Samsung’s 9100 PRO at 1 TB — the flagship that replaced the 990 PRO. It is an M.2 2280 drive on PCIe 5.0 ×4 with NVMe 2.0, reading at 14,700 MB/s and writing at 13,300 MB/s: almost exactly double the Gen 4 generation. It carries 1 GB of LPDDR4X DRAM, is rated at 600 TBW, and this part number is the bare drive — 2.38 mm thick, no heatsink.

Compatibility — check before buying:
⚠️ You need a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot to get anything out of this drive.

On a PCIe 4.0 board it will work perfectly — and run at roughly 7,000 MB/s, which is 990 PRO speed for 9100 PRO money. Check your motherboard: only the CPU-attached M.2 slot on recent AMD AM5 and Intel LGA1700/1851 boards is Gen 5, and many boards have exactly one. Chipset-attached slots are usually Gen 4.

⚠️ Two 1 TB part numbers, and they are not the same product. MZ-VAP1T0BW (this one) is the bare drive. MZ-VAP1T0CW is the heatsink version, sold on Samsung’s UK, IE and German sites among others. Identical performance and endurance — the difference is cooling and physical fit.

⚠️ PlayStation 5: Samsung makes the claim only for the heatsink version. Samsung’s UK page for MZ-VAP1T0CW states that the 8.8 mm heatsink fits laptop, desktop and PlayStation 5. Samsung makes no PS5 statement at all on this bare part number, and the PS5 requires a heatsink this box does not contain. If the drive is for a console, buy the CW version. (A PS5 is a Gen 4 machine in any case — a Gen 4 drive is the smarter buy there.)

⚠️ Cooling matters more at Gen 5. This drive draws 7.6 W reading and 7.2 W writing, against 5.4 W and 5.0 W for the 990 PRO. Samsung recommends proper airflow. If your motherboard has no M.2 heatsink over the Gen 5 slot, buy the CW version instead of this one.

Best For

✓ A current AM5 or LGA1700/1851 desktop with a free PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot
✓ Very large file transfers, 8K video, AI datasets, fast game asset streaming
✓ A build where the motherboard already provides an M.2 heatsink
✓ Anyone who wants headroom rather than the cheapest fast drive

Key Features

 
14,700 / 13,300 MB/s — roughly double Gen 4
Samsung’s own datasheet figure for the 1 TB. Note that Samsung’s US site headlines 14,800 / 13,400 — that is the line-wide marketing number for the larger capacities. The datasheet and every EU page give 14,700 / 13,300 at 1 TB, and that is what we publish.
 
1 GB of LPDDR4X DRAM
A step up from the 990 PRO’s LPDDR4, and the reason this drive holds performance when it is nearly full or under sustained load, where DRAM-less drives sag.
 
600 TBW, dual-limited warranty
Samsung warrants it for 5 years or 600 TBW, whichever comes first. Note that the endurance is the same 600 TB as the Gen 4 990 PRO at this capacity — you are buying speed, not extra life.
 
Full hardware encryption
AES 256-bit full disk encryption, TCG Opal 2.0 and IEEE 1667 for Microsoft BitLocker eDrive.
 
⚠️ Bare drive — no heatsink, no installation kit
Samsung publishes “Installation Kit: Not Available”. The box holds the SSD and a warranty statement. No screw, no heatsink, no bracket.

Measurement Note ⚠️ Samsung publishes the random figures at QD256, Thread 32 only. Unlike the 990 PRO, no QD1 or QD32 numbers are published — so these cannot be compared like-for-like against a Gen 4 drive’s QD32 figures.

Other Omissions V-NAND generation and layer count, DWPD, any named thermal technology, PS5 compatibility for this bare version.
Data Note ⚠️ Samsung’s German page prints the width as 25 mm. The datasheet and the UK page say 22.15 mm, which is correct for M.2 2280 — treat the German figure as a page error.
Availability ⚠️ Samsung UK marks the 1 TB “No longer available” and Samsung DE shows “nicht verkäuflich”, for both the bare and the heatsink version. Treat this as channel stock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it work in a PCIe 4.0 motherboard?
Yes, but at Gen 4 speed — around 7,000 MB/s, which is what a 990 PRO does for less money. There is no reason to buy this drive for a Gen 4 board. Check that your board has a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot, and remember it is usually only one, the CPU-attached one.
9100 PRO or 990 PRO?
Only the interface. Both have 1 GB of DRAM and both are rated 600 TBW at 1 TB. The 9100 PRO is Gen 5 and roughly twice as fast on paper; it also draws noticeably more power (7.6 W against 5.4 W reading) and needs better cooling. On a Gen 5 board, this one. On a Gen 4 board, the 990 PRO.
Does it come with a heatsink?
No. MZ-VAP1T0BW is the bare drive, 2.38 mm thick, with no heatsink and no mounting screw. The heatsink version is MZ-VAP1T0CW. Given the power draw, if your motherboard does not cover the Gen 5 slot with its own heatsink, buy the CW version.
Can I use it in a PlayStation 5?
Samsung makes the PS5 claim only for the heatsink version, and says nothing about PS5 on this bare part number. The console needs a heatsink and this box has none. It is also a PCIe 4.0 machine, so a Gen 5 drive gains you nothing there — a 990 PRO with a heatsink is the better console choice.
What controller does it use?
Samsung does not publish a name — the datasheet and every regional page say only “Samsung in-house Controller”. We do not print names that Samsung has not published.
Why are the IOPS figures not comparable to other drives?
Because Samsung measures them differently here. The 9100 PRO’s 1,850K / 2,600K IOPS are quoted at QD256, Thread 32, an unusually deep queue. Samsung publishes no QD1 or QD32 numbers for it, so you cannot line these up against a 990 PRO’s QD32 figures. Compare sequential speeds instead.
Singular Expert Insight
The 9100 PRO is a straightforward proposition: it is the 990 PRO on a Gen 5 bus. Same 1 GB of DRAM, same 600 TBW at 1 TB, same in-house controller with no published name — but roughly double the sequential throughput and, unavoidably, about 40 % more power draw. That last point is the practical one. At 7.6 W under read this drive runs hot, Samsung names no thermal technology for it, and this bare part number ships without a heatsink. If your motherboard’s Gen 5 slot has its own heatsink you are fine; if it does not, buy the MZ-VAP1T0CW version rather than adding a random cooler. And be honest about whether you need Gen 5 at all: outside very large sequential transfers, an everyday desktop will feel no different from a good Gen 4 drive, because at everyday queue depths both are far faster than the workload. Buy it for a Gen 5 board and real throughput work. Browse our internal SSD range.

Buyer’s Guide

Buy it if

Your motherboard has a free PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot with its own heatsink, and you move large files often enough for 14,700 MB/s to be real rather than theoretical.

Skip it if

Your board is PCIe 4.0 (the 990 PRO does the same job for less), the Gen 5 slot has no heatsink (buy MZ-VAP1T0CW), or the drive is for a PlayStation 5.

Also consider

MZ-VAP1T0CW, the same drive with the heatsink, for a bare motherboard slot or a console. The 990 PRO if your board is Gen 4. Larger capacities go to 8 TB.
