Part numberMZ-VAP1T0CW

The short answer

A PCIe 5.0 drive that arrives with its heatsink already on, the Samsung 9100 PRO 1TB with Heatsink (part number MZ-VAP1T0CW) is an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD with 1 TB of capacity. It is for a mini PC owner with a free M.2 2280 slot who wants fast storage and can spare the room the heatsink needs.

Specifications

The drive holds 1 TB. Sequential read is 14700 MB/s and sequential write 13300 MB/s over PCIe 5.0. Endurance is 600 TBW, and the drive has a DRAM cache. The heatsink is already fitted, which is also why clearance needs checking. On the Beelink EQR6 and Dell Pro Max Micro FCM2250 the slot runs at PCIe 4.0 speed.

Which mini PCs it fits

An M.2 2280 NVMe drive needs an M.2 2280 slot. The Beelink EQR6 and Dell Pro Max Micro FCM2250 take it but run it at PCIe 4.0 speed, and the heatsink means checking clearance. The GEEKOM A8 Max needs only that clearance check.

The Apple Mac Studio (M5 Max), Mac Studio (M5 Ultra) and Mac mini (M5 Pro) have no M.2 slot, so it does not fit. For the NIMO Mini PC Desktop AI Max+ 395 and ACEMAGIC AM08 Pro, we have not confirmed it fits, since their number of M.2 slots is not confirmed.

Checked against every mini PC sold on amazon.com, from the specifications we hold for each machine.

Before you buy

Measure the space above the slot before ordering, since the heatsink is part of the drive. On some machines the slot runs at PCIe 4.0 speed. Samsung does not state whether the drive is single-sided.

Common questions

Will it run at full speed in a PCIe 4.0 slot?

On the Beelink EQR6 and Dell Pro Max Micro FCM2250 it fits, but the slot runs at PCIe 4.0 speed, below the drive's PCIe 5.0 interface. Check heatsink clearance too.

Can I use it in a Mac mini or Mac Studio?

No. The Apple Mac Studio (M5 Max), Mac Studio (M5 Ultra) and Mac mini (M5 Pro) have no M.2 slot, so an M.2 2280 drive like this has nowhere to go.

Does it come with a heatsink?

Yes, the heatsink is already fitted. That is why you should check clearance around the slot, as the Beelink EQR6, Dell Pro Max Micro FCM2250 and GEEKOM A8 Max all call for.
