Solid state drives have come a long way since their introduction a few years ago and reaching previously unthinkable price points for SSDs (8¢ per GB). Of course, some compromises had to be made (lack of DRAM for example for the drive in question) but even so, this new T-Force Vulcan G series from Team Group provides an excellent balance of value for money and performance.

The Vulcan G is armed with a Silicon Motion SM2258XTG controller, Toshiba 64-Layer TLC flash memory and it’s backed by a 3 years warranty (or 800TBW endurance rating for the 1TB). All of these should convince you to put them on your shopping list when upgrading from mechanical hard drives or if you’re after more affordable 2.5″ storage.
