The short answer
The Samsung 9100 PRO 4TB with Heatsink is a 4 TB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD on PCIe 5.0, made for a mini PC owner with a free slot of that size who wants a lot of fast storage. A heatsink is already fitted, so check the clearance in your machine before you buy.
Specifications
It holds 4 TB, so a single slot can carry a large library. Sequential read is 14800 MB/s and sequential write is 13400 MB/s, but those figures need a PCIe 5.0 slot. Endurance is 2400 TBW, and the drive has a DRAM cache. The heatsink is already fitted, so you do not need to add one.

Which mini PCs it fits
An M.2 2280 NVMe drive goes in an M.2 2280 slot, and the PCIe 5.0 interface only runs at full speed in a slot that supports it. The GMKtec NucBox M6 Ultra, HP Z2 Mini G1a and Lenovo ThinkCentre M70q Gen 5 take it, but each runs it at PCIe 4.0 speed and needs room for the heatsink. 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. We have not confirmed the fit for the ACEMAGIC AM08 Pro or GMKtec NucBox M5 Plus, because we do not know how many M.2 slots they have.

Before you buy
Your slot needs to support PCIe 5.0 for the full speeds, and the heatsink needs room around the drive. The machines named above that take it with a caveat run it at PCIe 4.0 speed. Samsung does not state whether the drive is single-sided.
Common questions
Will it run at full speed in my mini PC?
Only in a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot. The GMKtec NucBox M6 Ultra, HP Z2 Mini G1a and Lenovo ThinkCentre M70q Gen 5 run it at PCIe 4.0 speed instead.
Does it come with a heatsink?
Yes, a heatsink is already fitted. Because of it, check the room for the heatsink in your machine before buying, since the machines that take it with a caveat all flag this.
Can I use it in a Mac mini?
Not the Apple Mac mini (M5 Pro), which has no M.2 slot. The Mac Studio (M5 Max) and Mac Studio (M5 Ultra) have no M.2 slot either.
