Teamgroup T-Force Vulcan Z 1TB 3D NAND Internal SSD (T253TZ001T0C101)

The Teamgroup T-Force Vulcan Z 1TB Internal SSD is a 2.5-inch SATA drive built for gamers and PC builders who want fast, reliable storage without moving to NVMe. Equipped with 3D NAND TLC flash memory, the drive delivers sequential read speeds of up to 550 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 500 MB/s over a SATA Rev. 3.0 (6 Gb/s) interface — a significant jump over ageing hard drives and a smooth, cost-effective upgrade path for desktops and laptops alike. Under the hood, the Vulcan Z employs Smart SLC Caching technology to accelerate burst write operations, while a built-in ECC (Error Correcting Code) engine continuously monitors and corrects data integrity issues, helping preserve stored files over the long term. The drive's compact 7 mm z-height (100 mm × 69.9 mm × 7 mm) fits standard 2.5-inch drive bays and most laptop slots, making it straightforward to install alongside or as a replacement for an existing drive. The T-Force Vulcan Z 1TB has a rated endurance of 200 TBW (Terabytes Written), which comfortably covers years of everyday gaming, content creation, and general workloads. It also carries a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1,000,000 hours, giving an indication of the drive's designed reliability. The unit is rated for shock resistance up to 1,500 G and vibration tolerance up to 20 G (non-operating), so it can handle the occasional knock during transport or installation. Operating temperature is rated at 0 °C to 70 °C, with storage humidity tolerance of 5 % to 95 % RH (non-condensing). The drive runs at DC +5 V and is compatible with Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista, macOS 10.4 or later, and Linux 2.6.33 or later. Teamgroup backs the Vulcan Z with a 3-year warranty.
