Phison E12 controller w/ DRAM. Toshiba 64-layer TLC NAND. PCIe 3.0x4 disk rated 3,000 MB/s sequential reads and 2,600 MB/s sequential writes for the 1TB model. Stellar 1660TBW endurance rating.

If you need a 3.0x4 generation disk, this a pretty good option at this price point.

This is the only nvme with DRAM at this price range. All the other one in this range are DRAMless.

I think it's a better option than the budget PCIE 4 drives.

There's a SM2262ENG version, which is better.

Both drives are pretty hot and would benefit from a heat sink.

The thermals are an issue for the form factor. Even m2 sata runs much hotter than 2.5". It's bizarre because the pcb is similar in size.

I wonder how much the controller on the host plays a role?.?

I bought from Amazon at the same price. The version I got has an RTS5762 controller. I only get about 2950/2500 MB/s read/write in CrystalDiskMark.

How do you check which controller you have?

Note that there is a firmware update available here:

https://support.teamgroupinc.com/...wnload.php

Edit:
Peeking around inside of those update files, I see references to Realtek, so the update may only be for drives with the Realtek controller. Since the update installed ok for me, I presume my recently purchased 1TB MP34 has Realtek. It has a black PCB instead of blue, so that may be another clue. CrystalDiskMark gave me about 3250/2900 MB/s read/write, so performance seems good.
