Will a 4tb Samsung 990 Pro SSD with heatsink fit into the XPS 8960?
I would like to install a 4tb Samsung 990 pro (or two) into my Dell XPS 8960. Has anyone actually done this? I am worried the version with the heatsink won't fit.

Yes, the Samsung 990 pro with heatsink will fit.

Excellent choice, IMO.
It's too bad the 4TB HS version has a 30% price premium atm.

I purchased the Samsung 990 PRO 4Tb with heatsink and it works without a problem in my XPS 8960. The heatsink version comes indeed with a price premium, however I signed up with an Amazon Prime Card that included an instant $200 gift: so that made it reasonable.
Thanks,

@GSDoes
Great choice and worth it for sure.
I just couldn't wait for the 4TB version and settled on 2TB and it's amazing.
