TEAMGROUP Team Delta R RGB 500GB White SSD

Product Information

Indeed, even present-day consoles are promoting the absolute best NVMe SSDs—both the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 brag fast NVMe SSDs and you would prefer not to get abandoned by the control center currently, isn’t that right? While RGB doesn’t have any kind of impact on the performance of your solid-state drive, it does have quite the visual impact. Therefore, when choosing an RGB SSD, you’ll want to consider the performance of it first, as that’s what matters, but do take a look at how the RGB lights work and how much they’ll impact your system’s aesthetics. What should you look for in an RGB SSD? Form Factor The Sabrent EC-USASP has an on / off switch, something you won’t find on most SSD enclosures but a nice convenience if you want to leave it plugged in but only power it on when you need it. Most 2.5-inch SATA enclosures have USB 3.0 micro B as their output port and come with USB Type-A to micro B cables. However, the EC-USASP has a USB 3 Type-A port (5 Gbps) and comes with a Type-A to Type-A cable. So, if you are planning to connect the enclosure to a laptop that has only Type-C ports, you can use a USB Type-A to Type-C cable (something many people have lying around the house) to do so. At the point when you wanted an exceptional NVMe SSD with RGB lighting, the main thing that should strike a chord is the XPG S40G. Presently we realize the cost isn’t excessively hot, however, you will have the first-class read/write speeds of 3500/3000 Mbps – that is over two times the standard SATA SSD speed. For what it's worth, the lighting is more robust on Adata's drive. The lighting runs the length of both sides and is configurable.

read and write results were much clearer, with the S40G scoring second only to another drive we've recently tested during a new run of benchmarks, the WD Blue SN550. Over the SX8200 Pro, however, it's clear that ADATA has tweaked matters in the S40G (possibly with the help of a new Realtek RTS5762 controller) and significantly improved this key aspect. AS-SSD If you’re just searching for a boot drive, you might pull off just 120GB, yet with the present games, you’ll need more – a solitary game can without much of a stretch arrive at 25GB or more. Read and write speed GB/s is here to stay with the introduction of Teamgroup’s Cardea Z540 SSD. It set multiple records in our testing, beating out even the very fast Crucial T700. If you want the best storage performance possible right now, this drive is it. Its consistent sustained performance and DirectStorage-optimized firmware are additional bonuses, making it a great choice for high-end desktop gaming or workstation tasks. Faster drives are on the way, including Team’s own Z54A, but with a slowing storage market this is the king for now. With a 2.5” SATA III form factor and 3D NAND flash, the T-Force Delta S is an interesting RGB SSD. The speed tops out at 560 MB/s, which is fairly fast, but still much slower than other NVMe M.2 competitors. However, if you’re coming from a traditional hard drive, this won’t be an issue for you. There’s also support for S.M.A.R.T. device monitoring, as well as TRIM, so performance and durability should be good.

The TEAMGROUP T-FORCE Delta Max 500GB SSD

Another significant thing is the read and write speeds. Read and write speed is significant for the fastest RGB SSD. This is the real speed at which you’ll have the option to move documents to and from the SSD and straightforwardly converts them into performance. With a SATA III drive, you can’t hope for something else than 600 MB/s throughputs. Then again, with NVMe drive, those speeds can go up to 3,500 MB/s. That is multiple times SATA III’s most extreme speed. If your computer upholds NVMe drive, definitely, get one. List of the Best RGB NVMe SSDs Our SSD coverage in recent months has been heavily focused on NVMe SSDs as the more active and exciting market segment. As a result, our post-Spectre/Meltdown re-testing of drives has included relatively few SATA SSDs. Most of our small and low-end SATA drives have not yet completed the longer AnandTech Storage Bench tests, so this review has fewer results for The Destroyer and the ATSB Heavy test than we typically include. AnandTech 2018 Consumer SSD Testbed The T-Force Delta S TUF RGB SSD is an interesting option. For starters, the 2.5” SATA III form factor limits it in terms of performance, but it gives it a lot of room for its lights. The speed tops out at 560 MB/s, which is on par with other SATA III SSDs. The SSD also has support for S.M.A.R.T., which monitors the drive’s status, as well as TRIM, which will bring out the best performance on whichever operating system you’re using it. It comes in a 250GB size, which is enough for your OS, your software, and maybe a game or two.

The ADATA XPG Spectrix S40G also lets you manage the drive and perform various maintenance tasks through the company's SSD Toolboxsoftware, one of the more comprehensive in the consumer storage space. Through SSD Toolbox, you can get a slew of information points on the drive (such as used space, drive health, and temperature), as well as diagnostic tools and utilities like Secure Erase and TRIM servicing. A Benchmark Duel That may look like a stumble for the Spectrix, but actually, the difference from high to low score here is less than 1 percent, within the margin of error. In the real world, you won't be able to notice the difference in tasks like these. Crystal DiskMark The ADATA-rated sequential-read and -write ceilings of 3,500MBps and 3,000MBps of the 1TB Spectrix S40G, mentioned above, are just about the peak of what PCIe 3.0 drives can achieve. Does it live up to those marks in our testing? Let's dig into the benchmarks to find out. Crucial's T700 is the world's fastest SSD, taking the hands-down performance lead in every performance category. That groundbreaking speed comes courtesy of the drive's PCIe 5.0 x4 connection, which offers a pathway for up to twice the throughput of PCIe 4.0 SSDs, and the Phison E26 SSD controller paired with Micron's leading-edge 232-Layer 3D TLC flash. That potent common creates an SSD that's the fastest on the market for PC game loading times.It's hard to decide which drives are the best to compare the Fury RGB against, since most of our SSDs don't have LED lighting. Ignoring the lighting aspect, the drives that are most technologically similar are the Toshiba TR200 and Plextor M8V, SATA drives with the same NAND and different controllers. The Crucial MX500 and Intel 545s are mainstream SATA drives with Intel/Micron 64-layer TLC. has become a more attractive capacity point for SSDs as time has gone on. While there are now many options available, most come with compromises of one sort or another. You may have to settle for QLC, a weaker controller, no DRAM, unreliable hardware, etc. This is not always a big deal, especially if the drive is intended to be a secondary gaming drive. In the PlayStation 5, however, extra cooling is beneficial, so it’s convenient to have a heatsink option available. At the same time, laptops favor bare drives and especially single-sided drives, the latter of which have been very rare with TLC until recently. Below is a screenshot of the SSD Toolbox software. This is how the drive comes from the factory, before any formatting or usage.
