Teamgroup Team Group Cardea Zero Z440 M.2 1000 GB PCI Express 4.0 3D NAND NVMe

Fortunately one other reviewer mentioned that a screw was not included. Paid $5 extra for a nvme screw kit! You cannot install this storage device without that one small screw… no idea why they are not including it. Storage itself is working as expected. (Installed it in ibuypower gaming pc from Costco. the computer does NOT support pcie raid.)

First, product came very early and in good condition.. thanks seller Second, installation is easy and no issues with detection Third, all working fine though there is a substantial difference on some reads at cyrstaldisk, i think this is mainly due to 1 got heat sink and the other dont have.. My mobo is asus tuf h670 wifi d4 which has 4 m.2 slots, 3 has heatsink and 1 dont have.. all bought here at amazon and all are working very fine.. Overall, very happy with the purchase.. thank u

I know Teamgroup is a newer company and has came a long way. Both their system memory and storage solutions are great. This drive does 3700/2700 in my ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 (2021). Word of warning it does not come with a screw however my computer had them in there. This is worth the money if you are looking for upgrading. Final Fantasy XV a notoriously long loading game loads in 1/2 the time it did on my gaming PC. Final Fantasy VII PC also loads pretty quick. I highly recommend this HDD for gaming. If I had ePCI 4.0 it would take advantage of the full speed, and I would get a 2TB if you plan to have a lot of modern games. Mortal Kombat 11 loads pretty quick I compared installing it on both drives as an experiment and this SSD loads it in 1/3 the time it does on my primary SSD. Cons: Does not come with a screw and difficult to get out of the plastic holder in the box. Pros: Snappy. Easy to install. High speed data transfer. TBW is 1,100 TB (or 1.1PB) IOPS Easy to initialize and fast to format took me longer to navigate to computer management than it did to initialize and format. (10 seconds total time) Final Notes: I only had this for a week and I am very impressed. I will get another drive soon as my system holds 3 drive. I will likely get a 2TB one. Get this drive and you will not be disappointed. Also this drive will likely be the cheapest solution for expanding your PS5 storage. It will not be the fastest drive but for the money it is a great upgrade option.

Bought my first one of these 9 months ago and was so thoroughly impressed I've since bought 4 more. Ran a test on the oldest one today it's earned a spot in my home server where I'll be buying at least 4 more for a ZFS parity pool. They seem to run cool enough to not need a heatsink, my motherboard has 1 m.2 slot with a heat sink and 1 without, running this test on either of them shows scores within a expected margin of error depending on tasks running. This test was run while having 2 browsers open on 2 monitors with 4 and 6 tabs open and even watching a twitch live stream.
