I installed it earlier this morning. I benchmarked it with CrystalDiskMark 6.0.2 against driver ver. 3.1. All numbers were similar between both driver versions. I didn't see any performance gains.

I just benchmarked Samsung NVMe drivers 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2 on my HP Spectre x360 convertible notebook with a Samsung PM951 256GB NVMe SSD (MZVLV256). I am seeing a slight drop in Sequential (1MB QD8) read speeds compared to the previous two releases, while 3.1 and 3.2 have slightly higher Random 4K write speeds compared to 3.0. Out of curiosity for the benchmark, I tried installing Samsung NVMe driver 2.3 (10-24-2017), but Windows 10 1903 reverts to 3.0 (2-12-2018) after a clean uninstall. If I uninstalled the device and deleted the driver software, the result was a blue screen. Specs: HP Spectre x360 (Kaby Lake) Core i7 7500U, 8GB DDR3L 1866MHz Samsung PM951 256GB NVMe SSD (MZVLV256) Windows 10 Pro x64 1903 (18362.449)

I just ran a benchmark on the Samsung NVMe 3.3 driver (released 2/26/2020) and performance is very similar to the 3.2 driver.

Welcome to the Forums... Version 3.2 worked fine and would work good for you also. There is a newer version (3.3) recently released as well. > https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/download/tools/
