Timetec 1TB SSD 3D NAND TLC SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5 Inch 7mm (0.28) 800TBW Read Speed Up to 550 MB/s SLC Cache Performance Boost Internal Solid State Drive for PC Computer Desktop and Laptop (1TB)

Works great

Very good speed for its cost, thanks.

Its alright. I got it to fill an empty slot on my Orico enclosure which has space for an NVME and SATA m.2. My OCD forced me to get this to fill the slot. Its not as fast as an NVME and I wouldnt recommend it over an NVME ever (like 1/4 the speed of my intel PCI3 NVME over Thunderbolt 3) but if you need to fill a slot as a backup, then this is an option.

My PC Boots so fast now. I cloned my Western Digital 1tb hard drive to the Timetec 1TB SSD and everything is so much faster now. I am going to like this. I like Timetec products and installed 32gb of their ram a few months ago. I bought 2 of the Timetec 1 tb SSDs and the other one will be the system drive for another pc I am building. Could not me more pleased! I am running Win 10, I7 4.0 GHz on a Gigabyte Motherboard w 32 Gigs of ram.

price is good speed is ok I used for os

Good nice

It works great

I have no complaints or concerns so far. However, I use these as usb boot up hard drives for many Linux Raspberry Pi 4, fours that I am programming. I bought this one to setup the Raspberry pi OS to bootup thru a usb port so I could program on my Asus X200ca laptop. I ran into issues with the bios which doesnt allow because I learned the bios firmware needs to be updated to permit the temp change. Still researching how to do this, as I tried all that I found on Youtube and no luck so far. This M.2 drive is very reliable for many uses.. Thank you Timetec! Joe Garofalo Boca Raton, Fl

If you need a cheap fast boot drive, this is perfect!

Im one to encourage smaller brands by buying from them ahead of the bigger, better known ones. Timetec, being a smaller brand, was no exception. The specs for write-read speed, the 1,800 TBW, the DRAM cache etc were comparable to bigger brands: WD, Samsung SN750, Crucial etc. Now, couple that with all the glowing reviews, and I was willing to give this one a try. My hope was really high on Timetec that I, in fact, bought their 3D NAND SATAIII SSD (1TB) as well. Installed the 2TB stick into my Dell Latitude E7470 with no problems. Installed my Windows 10 and booted up the system. Again, no problems. Then, I installed the CrystalDisk info to check for the SSDs health. And thats when things went south. Now, the health status read 98%. Odd, considering the SSD stick is brand new. So, I ran it again. Same thing. I got in touch with customer service. They replied promptly. Said it was indeed strange. I didnt hold this against them. After all, sometimes one slip through the cracks. So I returned it for a replacement. On receipt, I ran the same health check. Again 98%. I said to myself, maybe its not a big deal. Lets see if the read-write speed is as blistering as advertised. So, rather than a 3,400/3,000 MB/s value, I got readings that were almost HALF that: 1,735.64/1,634.45 MB/s. Now, keep in mind, I mentioned earlier that Id also bought the SATAIII SSD. Well, this experience prompted my running a health check on it too. Fortunately, it came back 100% good. I wasnt quite ready to give up on this NVME SSD, so I somehow tried to convince myself that perhaps the fault was with my laptop. So, I switched out the Timetec, for another fairly up-and-coming brand Inland by Micro Center. Specifically, Inland Premium NVME 2TB. Installed it. Ran a check. Health status 100% good. Enough to convince me to return this Timetec for a refund. Mailed customer service to share my experience and advised them to do a better across-the-board quality control check on this product. They replied with a courteous apology for my unpleasant experience. I wouldve given this a 2 star if not for their prompt CS response. That said, you can take your chances with this 2TB SSD. But off the top of my experience, Id suggest a pass on this one ... for now. Hope this review was helpful. * **************************************************************************************** * UPDATE (12/16/2022): As you can see, Ive upgraded the star rating from 3 stars to 5 stars. And heres why. The previous review (which Ill keep up to give you context) was based on the old logo Timetec. This is me, now, after purchasing the New Logo Timetec. My initial thoughts were: Itll take more than just window dressing the SSD stick with a new plastered-on logo to sway me. Whats under the hood of this newer iteration? Well, thats what I was about to find out. My previous qualms were twofold: 1) The health percentage was under 100%. 98% to be exact. 2) Write/Read speeds were less than half of what they advertised. But, since that time, Ive taken possession of a Dell Precision 5520, which has two SSD slots: One for SATA III SSD, and the other for M.2 NVME SSD. So, as I browsed through Amazon for a new SSD to slot in, Id noticed Timetec had updated their logo. And so I said to myself.Hey, why not give it another try? So glad I did. Trust, I ran a Chrystaldisk info heath check. Came back 100%. Same for the SATAIII SSD. Speed was also close to as advertised. Two thumbs up. Oh, and before I forget, let me add that the average core temp was sub 39 degrees (with a silicone thermal pad). Now I can confidently declare, go get Timetec. Theyre an upcoming US based brand with probably one of the best pricing you can find in the market.
