TEAMGROUP MP33 PRO 1TB SLC Cache 3D NAND TLC NVMe 1.3 PCIe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 Internal Solid State Drive SSD (Read Speed up to 2100MB/s) TBW>600TB Compatible with Laptop & PC Desktop TM8FPD001T0C101

I’m not the fastest, but work OK

Amazing speed and capacity for the price! Super quick reads and writes for such a cheap NVME M.2 SSD drive. Using them to run two PCs with the operating systems installed on these SSDs. Absolutely no issues with PC usage or even gaming or read/write heavy workloads. Seriously! A little over half a gigabyte for such high speeds for about the same price for nearly the same size SATA SSD!

Its amazing how much value this drive delivers. 2TB with DRAM and TLC for 80 bucks!?! Shut the front door with the Gen4 talk. Using it for the system drive in a new build with Win11 Pro installed on it. It is Gen3 but in day to day use youd be hard pressed to tell the difference from Gen4. Flawless victory.

Had one fail in literally minutes so off a star. Its a great company and I would have given five stars but had to tag one of /em.

3111 read 2961 write. Open in windows after POST. Less than 5 seconds. I upgraded an Intel 600P. It is a new computer at an affordable price. And it has a life of 1,660 TBW. With my usage that is over 100 years. This is the best bang for buck upgrade I have ever done. Very competitive price. Mac Mini 2014 comments: I was so impressed with this drive in my Gigabyte Z170/Intel 6600 K computer that I decided to replace the NVMe drive in my Mac Mini. The main reason was the 1660 TBW spec. I read the question Will this work for an early 2015 MacBook Pro 13” ? The answer left me thinking it wouldnt work in a Mac. But with closer of the answer Unfortunately Apple uses a different interface that is similar but different from m.2. I realized that they were talking about the connector. Amazon sells an adapter for Mac NVMe replacement: M.2 NVME SSD Convert Adapter, 12+16pin M.2 NGFF M-Key SSD Convert Card for MacBook Air Pro Retina Mid 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017, NVME AHCI SSD Upgraded Kit for A1465 A1466 A1398 A1502. In the questions section for this adapter they said it would also work for my Mac Mini. I purchased the adaptor and a second M8FP4001T0C101. I installed it. When I powered it back on a message came up that the drive could not be read with a question how did I want to proceed? One of the answers was ignore. I then went Disk Utility. The drive was listed so I right clicked on the Disk Name and Mac OS asked me if I wanted to repair the disk. I clicked repair and bingo the drive was recognized. I erased it with an APFS volume format request and the drive worked. I restored the new drive from my back up. It works perfectly. There are limitations for the Mini because it only has two PCIe lanes and is limited to 5.0 GT/s. But I get 747 MBs write and 743 MBs read. This is a marked improvement from the 80 MBs stock HDD. Totally Satisfied!

Ive purchased m RAM and many SSDs from TeamGroup and havent had a problem.

Los productos de team group son muy buenos

Performed at nearly 4000MB/s read and over 3000MB/s writes. Cant be happier for $35.

So mix if good and bad. First the bad- components on my drive are not what Team Group sent out for product reviewers years ago. The controller is no longer a phison unit but a maxio one now. So really, we have no idea what the longevity is anymore / long term performance behaviors. The good - the benchmarks are against a 10% filled drive and vastly exceed the listed 1800/1500 performance figures. Basically twice the published speed. Lets see how long this is going to last.

I bought this M.2 NVMe SSD for my Windows 11 system disk. Before buying it, I read some online reviews carefully. In particular, I was interested in the SSDs write speed after the SLC buffer had been filled. (I shall call it the steady state write speed below.) It was because after testing a few SSDs, I found this writing speeds and SLC buffer sizes varied widely. For cheap and/or not well designed SSDs, the SLC buffer could be only a few GB and their steady state writing speed might be very low, e.g., below 20MB/s. Because these parameters can not be determined by popular benchmarking programs such as CrystalDiskMark, it could degrade the computer performances. Read speed is usually not a problem. From the review articles that I read, it indicates that the steady state writing speed of TEAMGROUP MP33 should be above 400 MB/s. The SLC buffer should be able to contain 100 GB of data. I think such a design is pretty good for me. Another advantage of this SSD is that it uses TLC as the main memory. It should be more reliable than the lower cost QLC memories. Thus, I bought one from Amazon. After I received it, I did a few tests. The test results from CrystalDiskMark is shown in the first figure attached. It looks pretty good and meeting what specified by the manufacture. To test the write speeds, I used the AIDA64 programs disk linear write test. The results are shown in the second figure. First of all, the write speed maintained above 1.5GP/s for data over 100GB. This basically agrees with the published review results. However, after that, the write speed further redused to about 200MB/s, and then, after the data written into the drive beyond 280GB, the write speed reached the stead state of about 100MB/s. This is a little disappointing even though it should be O.K. for being used as a Windows PCs system drive. I also did a test of writing an 100 GB data file to the SSD. The result is shown in the third figure. From the figure, it can be seen that the write data speed is maintained above 1.15GB/s and thus verified the previous conclusion. Overall, I think this SSD is pretty good, better than some other MVNe drives at similar cost. The only concern is why the steady state is not as good as I read from some of the published reviews that I have seen. That is why I give a 4 star rating hear. However, I think it should be work satisfactory as a Windows 10/11 system disk without problem.
