Samsung announces the new PM971 SSD storage drives, which offer high capacity and performance, in a minimal size, with NVMe technology.
Innovation in the industry is very important and Samsung is one of the most innovative companies on the market. Last week they presented the PM981 units, some high performance SSD units, slightly superior to the 980 series. Today Samsung has presented the PM971 units, which are somewhat smaller, in terms of surface area and which are more powerful than the PM970 NVMe SSDs. . We must emphasize that Samsung is leaving behind the names 'EVO' and 'PRO', for this new system of naming storage units.
These new PM971 units will have a total package of 22x16x1.5mm, units that have the Proton controller, developed by Samsung, have LPDDR4 DRAM cache and a single V-NAND Flash chip. The 980GB PM500 family units offer us a reading speed of 3.000MB / s and 1.800MB / s in writing, while the 970GB PM512 units, give us a 1.500MB / s reading and a writing speed of 900MB / s. These speeds are more than sufficient for average users, even for demanding users, since speed discrepancies should not be noticeable.

Everything is fine, but while Samsung launches these units and other products of this nature, on the other hand it agrees with micron, etc. to inflate the price of memory!… full service!
