Most imaging forums and platforms limit their discussion to the art and equipment that directly aid in the capture and post-capture processes, rarely discussing the hardware and components that can impact the speed and efficiency of processing images and footages. This is the reason why we, at Smart Photography, decided to feature those PC components that can make your workflow and processes more efficient. A fast and high-capacity internal SSD can help your editing suite in handling those layers and layers of non-destructive edits with better efficiency. The new Samsung SSD980 is an internal M.2 SSD with a fast NVMe PCIe 3.0 interface. This solid-state drive can be used with desktop and laptop motherboards that accept NVMe M.2 drives.
The Samsung SSD980 offers sequential read speeds of up to 3500 MB per second and write speeds of up to 3000 MB per second. This fast data transfer speed can be a blessing for gaming and heavy graphics, whether you decide to use it as the primary boot disk for an overall performance boost in your workstation, or as a dedicated scratch disk to extract top performance from your editing suite. With a DRAM-less design, the SSD offers up to 6.2x the speed of SATA SSDs. Samsung utilises Host Memory Buffer technology, which links the drive directly to the host processor’s DRAM to overcome any performance drawback.
