TeamGroup nears 15GB/s speed with new T-Force Z54E PCIe Gen5 SSD

TeamGroup has unveiled its new flagship SSD, the T-Force Z54E, and it's gunning for the performance crown. This new M.2 drive is one of the first to feature Phison's new E28 controller, allowing it to push sequential read speeds right up to the theoretical limit of the PCIe 5.0 interface.

According to the specs, the T-Force Z54E is rated for sequential reads of up to a staggering 14.9 GB/s, nudging just past competitors like Samsung's 9100 PRO and Kingston's FURY Renegade G5. Sequential write speeds are equally impressive, hitting up to 14 GB/s on the larger capacity models. This performance comes courtesy of the combination of the new Phison E28 controller, built on TSMC's 6 nm node, and 232-layer 3D TLC NAND flash.

The drive will be available in 1 TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB capacities. While the 2 TB and 4 TB models hit the peak 14.9 GB/s read and 14 GB/s write figures, the 1 TB version maintains the same scorching read speed but drops slightly to 13.7 GB/s for writes. As expected, the drive includes a DRAM cache for consistent performance.

Pushing nearly 15 GB/s inevitably generates a lot of heat. To combat this, TeamGroup has equipped the Z54E with its patented ultra-thin graphene heat sink. The company suggests this low-profile solution can be used on its own or in conjunction with a motherboard's M.2 heatsink or even a dedicated SSD cooler for maximum thermal dissipation.

KitGuru says: As you might expect, the Z54E won't come cheap. But according to its specs, if you do get it, at least you'll know you have the fastest PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSD on the market.
