More than a few gaming rigs will be rocking these.

). The models in question are the MZ-V9P1T0 and MZ-V9P2T0. The 9 in those model numbers is the giveaway, as the 980 Pro carries the model number MZ-V8P1T0 with some slight variations depending on the specific SKU. The 1T and 2T suggest there will be one and two TB versions, but not 4TB, though that may follow later.

The Samsung 980 Pro launched nearly two years ago, in September 2020. That was over a year after the first consumer PCIe 4.0 drives launched alongside AMD's X570 platform. It looks like Samsung doesn't want to be late to the party this time. The fact these listings have appeared in this database indicates the drives are soon to be released. A launch coinciding with that of AMD's PCIe 5.0 supporting AM5 platform is certainly possible.
