Samsung has just announced a new line of internal solid-state hard drives for modern PCs and laptops.

Fast and (soon) affordable – Samsung 980 review (Gen3 NVMe M.2 SSD)

The Samsung Electronics PM9C1A NVM SSD features the company’s proprietary V-NAND controller technology and a 5nm controller, enabling this storage solution to perform optimally during intensive PC applications and gaming tasks.

This is an internal drive, but it's thin enough to integrate into both PCs and laptops, which is always handy.

Now let’s talk about speed and power. With the PCIe 4.0 interface, Samsung’s PM9C1a has a 1.6x faster sequential read speed and a 1.8x faster sequential write speed than the previous generation, at 6,000 megabytes per second (MB/s) and 5,600 MB/s respectively. Random read and write speeds also support up to 900K input/output operations per second.
