Hi, has anyone else had the problem of the SSD being detected with size 0B in Diskpart? Both Windows and Linux Installer give me the size of 0B. Interface and UEFI settings should work as I was using a SAMSUNG SM951 before. Thanks a lot for your help!

I ordered the 1000GB version, but digitec only delivered 512GB. Be sure to check the size. Module came in a letter without padding. I don't know how you can send something like this....

Hello Together I have a Samsung PM981 (1000GB) installed in my notebook. Unfortunately, this is not available and now I wanted to ask whether the PM981a is compatible with the connectors and geometry? Greetings Christian

Short answer to the questions: - the one installed on the NVMe - from the OEM (or possibly not at all) - from the OEM (or possibly not at all) Reason: the PM981/PM981a are intended for OEMs and "should" not be retail. They are the OEM equivalent of the 970 EVO / 970 EVO Plus. PCB layout is 1:1 the same, the EVO PCBs are black, the PM ones are green (is cheaper). Samsung 970 EVO Plus has - 5 years warranty - Support, e.g. firmware updates by Samsung - Sellable packaging (colourful box) - manual - Higher price (currently CHF 105.00 at Digitec) Samsung PM981a has - 3 years warranty - no support by Samsung as the OEM gives the support - Bulkdwar, so comes without packaging (Digitec packs it in an ESD foil) - no manual - lower price (currently CHF 90.50 at Digitec)
