Some of teamgroups are not bad. Look at TBW. Vulcan z was one of them. 1600 tbw. This is one that's on the extreme low end. Not bad for the price though.

I'm not a big fan of Team Group and would flat out avoid the Vulcan Z. Of the SSDs I've recently tested, the Vulcan Z was the only one to experience rapid, severe performance degradation. If you want to go with Team Group, I'd prefer the CX2/AX2 line.
Also, TBW is NOT a good way of comparing SSDs. The number is for warranty purposes and not a good indicator of drive quality or longevity. Additionally, most people will never come close to it, during the drive's useful lifespan.

SSD/nand prices are expected to go back up (for really reals this time). Probably shouldn't wait to long to buy one of you need it
Expected to go up by whom?
I think it is only a nand manufacturer's day dream, I have never seen any sillicon product price go up in the long run. small and short bounce at most.
Some of the Chinese stuff is great. It certainly is ubiquitous, especially electronics. Thank you corporations for taking business out of country in the name of personal profits.
Some Chinese stuff is OK > middling > crappy > to invasive and awful. It can be a trial sorting out the particulars.
Lexar WAS a brand name, bought out, quality plummeted for awhile as I experienced it with some flash drives. It may be getting better but with other products that have a better track record being in the same price range I tend to go with those. After awhile the 'bargain' simply is not anymore. It's just a hassle.

On August 31, 2017, the Lexar brand and trademark rights were acquired by Longsys, a flash memory company based in Shenzhen, China. The Lexar SSD is no different from other OEM SSDs on Temu or SHEIN. Kodak also licensed the brand name to Chinese OEMs. They are cheap but their warranty does not exist.
SSDs are cheap now. Buy reputable brands with good reviews to save yourself the trouble.

Oh wait, all made in China. Guess he needs to toss those in the trash too.
