The company is offering it in two variants. One with a heatsink and one without it. The tech giant has made both of them available in three storage options: 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB. By the end of 2025, we will also get to see an 8TB version.

However, the brand hasn’t specified if these prices are for the variant with heatsink or the one without it. Considering these prices, the 8TB version could set you back by INR 99,999 ($1,147).Samsung 9100 Pro SSD specificationsThe Samsung 9100 Pro SSD has sequential read and write speeds of up to 14,800 MB/s and 13,400 MB/s respectively.
