Winning every crucial game without lagging

Winning every crucial game without lagging

T-FORCE CARDEA IOPS SSD leads the industry by offering up to 680K/670K IOPS of top performance, and breaking the limit of IOPS, so gamers never have to worry about the read/write speed. Game loading will be completed first and provide the key to winning every game without lagging.

Enjoy two cooling patents at once

Enjoy two cooling patents at once

The first in the industry to offer two patented cooling modules. The patented aluminum fin type heat spreader enhances heat dissipation up to 15%[1]. The heat dissipation performance of the patented ultra-thin graphene heat spreader is up to 9%[2]. You can choose your favorite cooling method.

Ultimate performance

Ultimate performance

Adopts latest ultra-fast PCIe Gen3 x4 interface, supports NVMe 1.3 specs, and is equipped with DRAM Cache to push read/write speeds to over 3,400/3,000MB/s[3]. Provides the smoothest high speed experience without overheating or slowing down after long period of gaming.

Smart algorithm enhances stability and durability

Smart algorithm enhances stability and durability

The built-in smart algorithm management mechanism has functions such as garbage collection which can ensure operation efficiency. The powerful Wear-Leveling technology and ECC (Error Correction Code) function enhance the reliability of data transfer. It also supports Windows TRIM command, LDPC (Low Density Parity Check Code) error correction mechanism, E2E Data Protection, etc. which are able to help in operation efficiency, prolong the service life of the SSD.

T-FORCE

T-FORCE

T-FORCE is TEAM force. The red “T” on the logo of “TF” represents TEAMGROUP’s passion for the storage products. The black “F” represents TEAMGROUP’s over 18 years of promotion of storage products. The visual design of the perfect combination elegantly symbolizes a pair of flying wings. They represent that the high quality and extreme performance gaming products from TEAMGROUP are capable of allowing all gamers to break the speed limit and enjoy the ever-changing world of gaming.

PRECAUTIONS
[1] With TEAMGROUP’s patented gaming fin type cooling module, both natural convection or forced air cooling (e.g. fan) can enhance heat dissipation. Long and rigorous test and burn-in test by the internal laboratory have proven that it can lower the temperature by up to 30℃ in open space and 10℃ in closed space, which provides more stable performance and extends the service life of the SSD.
[2] The experimental data is based on T-FORCE internal laboratory's test result. Under the same condition, the temperature test data is according to the comparison of the non-heat spreader M.2 PCIe Gen3 x4 SSD and the T-FORCE CARDEA IOPS Solid State Drive. The relevant test environment is simulated under a fanless environment using mask. The actual speed may vary depending on the software and hardware conditions of the platform.
[3] This product is compatible with Intel and AMD platforms, and the performance result is tested on a motherboard that supports PCIe 3.0 interface by the T-FORCE internal laboratory. The actual speed may vary depending on the software and hardware conditions of the platform.
[4] 1GB=1,000,000,000 Bytes. In OS system, it would be displayed as 1,000,000,000 Bytes/1024/1024/1024 = 0.93GB
[5] Definition and conditions of TBW (Terabytes Written)are based on JEDEC standard
[6] PCIe SSD works best under WIN8.1 and WIN10 operating system. Windows Operating Systems earlier than Windows 8.1 does not support NVMe Driver natively. Users will need to install NVMe Driver prior installing the SSD.
[7] The SSD is based on the TBW or Warranty period.
