TEAMGROUP T-CREATE CLASSIC 1TB for Creators 3D NAND TLC NVMe 1.3 M.2 PCIe Gen3x4 2280 Internal Solid State Drive SSD (Read Speed up to 2100MB/s) TBW 600TB for Laptop & PC Desktop TM8FPE001T0C611

Works well with stated read and write speeds. Drive stays cool with the included graphene copper foil in combination with the pad and heatsink of the device it is used with. Hopefully, the drive is of lasting quality. Time will tell.

I'm stumped for much to say about this thing, but I don't want to just say "It's really great" because then I'll seem like a bot. It's very sturdy, does it's job without a hitch. The best part is how little room it takes up, plus it's screwed right to the motherboard without any wires, so it couldn't be tidier. If you are looking for a drive like this, this is a good one.

So in the pictures you will find the speeds, but keep in mind, unless you have the same specs as my PC, you will find speeds to be faster. because of my i3-7020u and my 2666mhz 4gigs of RAM, the new SSD is being Bottlenecked, because of this, the speeds are slower than those who may have a Ryzen 7 5th gen or intel i7 11th Gen who may also have much more Ram than me. I would definitely Recommend this to anyone who needs more storage at fast speeds. though this is a PCIe Gen 3, not a 4, this is still fast.

Eeeww - I learned that it would not work in my 4th gen MainBo's m.2 slot because the slot is 2x2 & the device is 4x4 (lanes). So I got a simple solution in a PCIe x16 (@x8) card with an adapter on it for M.2, installed and waited after putting the case back together. After 1 minute the Win 10 had the drivers in and it showed up in Device Manager as good. I then downed the appropriate things from TeamGroup which did have a driver but I only used the ones WIN 10 put in automatically... The info of the drive says you have to install a driver first before installing it if you are using Win 8.1 as it's not Native like in 10. The driver for the user friendly GUI is worth using. It tells you all about the drive as well as the others. It gave me it's temperature! The usual way to get the temp was not available as it wasn't in the boards outdated M.2 slot. The PCIe slot info did not have temp either. Temp was 34°C. Funniest thing was using FolderExplorer to see if it does ReadyBoost and it said the computer was already fast enough. It asked me to set up BitLocker, so that's part of getting ready for Win 11.

Simple, easy install, came with nothing but the ssd(no heat sink or anything). Just screw it in and load it. The speeds are not good, honestly this is not much of an upgrade from a SATA ssd, but for the money I think it’s worth it. Unless you are on a VERY tight budget put in the extra few dollars to get a 970 or any other reliable or high speed nvme

Bought this drive cuz I was looking to have an SSD for a bunch of my most played games sinply because of convinience of loading and starting faster, and this drive did just that. R/W speeds are close to what the box says, capacity (1TB) is more than enough for my needs and for the price it sells at it's honestly one of the best m.2 you could hope for.Installation is extremely easy and took me no longer than 20 seconds at best. I took longer turning my pc off and unplugging everything than I did installing the drive. The box only contains the drive, although it has an extra space for a dedicated heatsink (which for that this drive does, the copper-graphene alloy does more than enough) and no screws. THE STANDOFF AND SCREW NECESSARY TO SCREW THIS DRIVE IN COME WITH YOUR MOTHERBOARD, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT!Great buy, might get a 2TB one next since I have an extra m.2 slot.

good ssd for this price

If you want to throw your money away...this is the item to buy. I bought the MVME for a new motherboard and set it up as my Windows 10 boot disk. One day I went to turn on the computer and just got the BIOS. I tried restarting several times and same result. I checked on-line for a reason for this and found out this is how a UEFI BIOS acts without a boot drive. I tried the NVME on another computer and it was not able to recognize it was even there. So, failed unit. Luckily I did not have anything important stored on it yet as the setup was still new. Well, being outside the return portal of Amazon I went to the T-Force website to request an RMA on the 5 year warranty for the unit (a reason I bought this SSD). Well, it is like a nightmare trying to navigate around there. I finally fount the RMA page and entered my info hoping to at least get a refund or replacement. The site would not accept the serial number on the SSD and just left me hanging there with no other option. So, I guess I can call or e-mail them and hope for the best. Let's just say I think I wasted money on a piece of junk and hope I can get some result other than just throwing it in the garbage. My recommendation is First-do not by this junk. Second, if you do...do not store anything of value on it as it may die at any time. Third, do not think the warranty will provide any help. I will try to contact them by phone but feel that will be wasted time also. I hate being cynical about things but this just seems like a scam to dump sub-standard parts for a quick cash grab and since they are in Taiwan I have little recourse. You pays your money and takes your chances. Please, don't get bitten like I feel I have. Junk is junk no matter how cheap it is.
