TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan 500GB 2.5" SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive

Have had it up as my secondary SSD for a few days now, my C drive is a M.2 WD Sn750 500 gb. which is obviously faster but this drive is still fast as heck to me. I just this year built a new PC had been using old one since abt 2014 which had a WD Black mechanical drive.... So this drive is amazingly fast to me, its abt 1/4 1/3 as fast as the boot drive but 5 times faster than the HDD. But the random read/write the HDD was abt .94-1.23 MB/s and This drive is 378.72-409.72 MB/s.... That is a huge difference and very noticeable. So far this drive is fast & responsive it seems to be good quality( 1st disk drive ive got made by Teamgroup, have bought their memory b4 tho) and im using it to store steam games etc so it is accessed all the time. I am very pleased with all aspects of this drive so far if something changes ill be sure to update this review.

Bought a second one (first one is my boot drive, can’t figure out how to change it to one of my M.2’s) because the first worked well (and to match). Brought them out from behind the case to show them off. Works well and looks cool!

Performed well as any WD or Crucial SSD and for about 10-15% cheaper. Has DRAM and a good controller. I would definitely recommend this as a boot drive or if you want, a storage drive since it is affordable.

It’s a pretty good SSD for the price. I’ve had better and much worse but this one is more than adequate and a very good price for 500gb. Only problem is on mine the temp sensor doesn’t work so it either won’t display a temperature or the temperature will be insanely high but it doesn’t affect performance. Would buy again for a new system if I needed an SSD
