I could not be more pleased! - I just built a computer for the first time! The items I purchased for the build: Phanteks EVOLV ATX Mid Tower in Antracite Gray / EVGA 700 B1, 80+ BRONZE 700W Power Supply / Intel Core I7 6700K CPU, Samsung 950 Pro 256GB M.2 Internal SSD / Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 Motherboard / Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR4 2400 RAM in White / Gigabyte AMD R7 360 GPU / Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler / TP-LINK N900 2.4GHz or 5GHz WI-FI Card. I am thrilled with my new build! Everything works well together and it was all plug and play. I did not have to make any kind of adjustments in the BIOS. I was so worried that I was going to have issues with the SSD not being recognized as a boot device (after reading various forums regarding NVMe - M.2 SSD's and this particular motherboard) and that major BIOS tweaks were going to be needed. That was simply not the case at all. As soon as I booted the computer for the first time and went to install Windows 10 Professional, the SSD was recognized and Windows installed perfectly. So the issues I was concerned with turned out to have nothing to do with my build. I think those issues have to do with using more than one M.2 SSD or other types of SSD's or hard drives in conjunction with each other. Then RAID becomes a factor. But in my case this was not an issue. My new computer is faster than any computer I have ever had! Boot time for a cold boot or restart is around 6 to 10-seconds. Things that took a half an hour or more to copy to the hard drive, like my music and video files from a backup drive, took less than 5-minutes on this SSD. All my programs open instantly. I know that SSD's are supposed to make things much faster than the old mechanical hard drives, but this was so much more than I expected. Review: Awesome fast - This drive is awesome FAST. Boot time 3 seconds. Now, that does need some clarification. When I first start my computer, from a cold start. The mother board comes online. Then it goes through the ‘boot order’ to see if there are any CD, or USB to boot from. Then the overclock cycle. I have an ASUS Maximus hero board, and it overclocks automatically. It will test your current configuration and overclock to the best STABLE frequency available. THEN windows, begins to load. A little circle, indicates load is in progress. That is where the 3 seconds start. The total time, for me, is more like 45 seconds. But IF, I turn off those features I mentioned. Then, I would have the 3 seconds. Or, maybe, you already have a, more, to the point, kind of setup. Those, extra seconds for those, boot up procedure, are important to me. But the point remains. From the windows load time, until me having my pointer. Is 3 seconds. Awesome fast. Now, the part you might not like, but you still need to know. Compatibility. When I, got this drive, which was, on release day. No backup software, could recognize the drive as being there. Now even the backup, that is part of windows, control panel>>file history>>system image. Then I went a browsing for a better image software. But, thank God, most people had a free sample to try and decide. But they all failed to, ‘see’, the new drive. And yes, I formatted it, and assigned it a logical letter. I even installed windows to it, a fresh. I did finally find ONE that worked. And it worked good, so I bought it. It’s called EaseUS backup. I got the 256 gig drive. But, as I put my libraries on a drive of their own. It is way bigger than I need. From the charts, performance gets better with a bigger drive. So even though I only use 50 of those 256 gigs. I am still glad I got the extra space. I can’t predict what I will need this drive for when it has served its current use. I do know I have thrown away a lot of little, useless, drives. And, I would like to be able to give this, as a gift, when I upgrade. ## Features - Storage Capacity: 256 GB. - Form Factor: NVMe M.2. - Interface: PCIe 3.0 x4 (up to 32Gb/s) NVMe 1.1. - Sequential Read Speed (Up To): 2,200 MB/sec. - Sequential Write Speed (Up To): 900 MB/sec. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B015SOI392 | | Additional Features | Portable | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,283 in Internal Solid State Drives #20,935 in Computer Internal Components | | Brand | Samsung | | Built-In Media | Solid State Drive | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 512 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity Technology | PCIe | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 635 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 32 Gigabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 256 GB | | Enclosure Material | Crystal & limpid tempered glass | | Form Factor | compact | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08806086777513, 09154403803162 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive with NVMe interface | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | NVMe | | Hard-Drive Size | 256 GB | | Hardware Connectivity | PCIE x 4 | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Weight | 0.02 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Samsung Memory | | Media Speed | 900 megabits_per_second | | Mfr Part Number | MZ-V5P256BW | | Model Name | 950 PRO | | Model Number | MZ-V5P256BW | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 2200 Megabytes Per Second | | Special Feature | Portable | | Specific Uses For Product | SSD Hard Drive | | UPC | 796594506546 782386503428 887276070285 | | Unit Count | 1.00 Count | | Warranty Description | 5 Years/200TBW | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Samsung - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity Technology:** PCIe - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 256 GB - **Hard Disk Description:** Solid State Drive with NVMe interface - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 2 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** NVMe - **Installation Type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Portable ## Images ![Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qsS8-DsyL.jpg) ![Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81xpZKfHF0L.jpg) ![Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91-yphm4oYL.jpg) ![Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61C38C5EcpL.jpg) ![Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ubzcxujDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product!

Yes it's blazingly fast on transfers, but in typical usage (office, browsing, media, gaming, photo editing) I have not noticed any improvement over my Samsung 850 EVO for more than twice the price. When the tech matures, support improves, and prices come down, this will be well worth the cost, I'm sure. ## Frequently Bought Together - Samsung 950 PRO 256GB SSD (MZ-V5P256BW) V-NAND, M.2 NVM Express - G.Skill Trident Z Neo Series (AMD Expo) DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 3600MT/s CL16-19-19-39 1.35V Desktop Computer Memory UDIMM (F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC) - CORSAIR RM1000x Fully Modular ATX Power Supply - 80 PLUS Gold - Low-Noise Fan - Zero RPM - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20500201-samsung-950-pro-256gb-ssd-mz-v5p256bw-v-nand-m](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20500201-samsung-950-pro-256gb-ssd-mz-v5p256bw-v-nand-m) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
