Review on 🖥️ TEAMGROUP T-FORCE DELTA MAX ARGB 1TB - High-speed 3D NAND TLC 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD with DRAM Cache (R/W Speed up to 560/510 MB/s) - Model T253TM001T3C302 by Rob Allen

I am currently using two of these in a non-RAID SATA 3 connection as databases for a custom build. 2TB isn't much for this feature, so a future upgrade will include larger hard drives as primary media storage, while SSDs allow for quick access to the media management system in Adobe Creative Cloud and possibly DaVinci Resolve as well. The good thing about these SSDs is that they can provide both functions at the same time. In fact, one could use them indefinitely that way (at least for the duration of SSD read/write) if the media doesn't need to be archived - say, as a revenue system where client media doesn't have an expected life. after the final delivery of the product. They are not installed as RAID; This is usually useful for disks where the RAID configuration offers a significant speed advantage. SSD drives are generally faster than hard drives with a RAID array. However, there may be applications where configuring as a RAID can be beneficial. However, Windows recognizes both drives as a single entity: although they are not part of a RAID per se, they are configured similarly to RAID in that they appear to Windows as a single drive. It was a direct option during mounting in Disk Management app. That was the only port-related surprise, but a nice one (okay, hard drives were all the rage when we last built the system). Team Group has other SSDs that don't support RGB and they have other RGB options. . They looked so cool and since the case they are installed in has a built in RGB driver (they are also fully compatible with most motherboard LED circuits) I went with this RGB option. I haven't seen any other offerings from other manufacturers that have such a unique look. Somehow Team Group managed to create a "muted" LED theme (not dimmed, muted. There is a difference). Subdued and LED are oxymorons of each other, but Team Group got it right with a classic, non-clownish look. However, they have a very distinctive appearance even when switched off. With no LEDs, they have a very smooth black gloss finish (Caution: leave the plastic film on the surface throughout installation and do not remove it until the glass panel is installed for the last time before installing a new system). Service). The best part; In addition to LED lighting, they have performance specifications that rival more well-known competitors and, in some cases, better wear-leveling circuitry. I would like to see an option for drives larger than 1TB in this model, maybe Team Group will work on that for future releases. However, they work very well and I am happy with both their performance and their looks. Assuming they hold up to spec for a reasonable amount of time I would buy them again.
