    It's literally just a smaller one, period .Cannot fit a regular 2.5" in the Ultrabook, so my ZenBook has one of these - it was made before nvme became really popular, so SATA drive.

    also.. many boards have a limited number of NVME slots. You can buy cards that allow you to use NVME in PCI e slots but that is a whole different discussion. In most motherboards there is a limit to the NVME and PCIE bandwidth. As you add devices you may end up slowing down the chain. ie you get gen 4 speeds then when you add your 3rd drive it downgrades to gen 3 speeds. SATA may allow you to add pretty fast storage in greater amounts. SSD data in raid can be a good way to get faster SATA without forcing a system downgrade. This really depends on your system..

    At the moment, on my desk top I run 5 Hard drives in raid in addition to SATA SSD and NVME. Hard drives are still a must if you want durable large scale storage.

    Curious if this TLC based sata drive would outperform an QLC based nvme drive.

    I would think in most respects it would.

    NVME is way faster.
    - This Sata drive (Read/Write Speed up to 530/430 MB/s) .

    - TeamGroup's own MP33 512GB Nvme SSD for $29 [amazon.com] (Read/Write Speed up to 1,700/1,400 MB/s)... And this is a slow PCIE Gen 3 ssd.

    (PS: I don't know what's going on with SD formatting...)

    What I want to know is if this format is faster, longer lasting, or in any way better (besides physical size) than a 2.5" sata ssd?

    That is a TLC based drive.

    I am curious of something like this vs. the really cheap QLC nvme drives whose write speed falls off a cliff when the cache fills up.

    Quote :
    Official write specifications are only part of the performance picture. Most SSD makers implement a write cache, which is a fast area of (usually) pseudo-SLC programmed flash that absorbs incoming data. Sustained write speeds can suffer tremendously once the workload spills outside of the cache and into the "native" TLC or QLC flash. ref [tomshardware.com]

    Depends, those are straight line sequential copy, random read write which is most windows/app performance tends to be placebo difference at this price.

    Even at these prices it'd be silly to buy an nvme primarily for mass storage/transfer. If that's your goal, get hdd or 2 .5 ssd. If using it as a boot drive, nvme is no question unless your mobo doesn't support it. 2.5 ssd only wins if the nvme is broken lol
    also.. many boards have a limited number of NVME slots. You can buy cards that allow you to use NVME in PCI e slots but that is a whole different discussion.

    Over last two months have ordered two of these when on sale. Both have arrived trashed due to improper packaging by Amazon.

    Both arrived snapped in two. These TeamGroup drives come on a cardboard card with drive in plastic bubble on the side. Amazon now ships everything in a stupid plastic envelope now. Both times drives has arrived snapped in half as there is no protection for drive when its in transit via USPS. And USPS tends to like to cram things in mailboxes. So had to send both of drives back. Finally gave up on a receiving something that was in one piece as the outsourced amazon support "promises" that replacement will be shipped properly....but that is a is a lie.

    Never had a problem with...anything shipped from Amazon. Live and learn I guess. I think that tells you how cheap this things really are. They don't even bother to package them well for shipping.

    Silicon Power 1TB A55 M.2 SSD SATA III Internal Solid State Drive 2280 SU001TBSS3A55M28AB https://a.co/d/fETe5m5

    Just bought one of these for an older laptop that only has M.2 SATA. $1 cheaper and doubt there will be any performance difference.

    On many motherboards if an nvme SSD is connected then it will disable one of the sata port. This may be the only reason to take this one over any of the nvme drive.
