TeamGroup Cardea Zero Z340 M.2 NVMe review

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 06/22/2020 02:34 PM [ 7 comment(s) ]

TeamGroup recently might have released a very fast PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD, but do not rule out the new Z340 which promises to set a few records on the PCIe Gen 3.0 interface. Advertised at 3400 MBs and a 1665 TBW value it immediately draws our attention.

Maybe I missed it in the review, but how much does it cost?

@Darksword
The Z340 series carries a slightly high price tag though, MSRP is 512GB/1TB $94.99 and $164.99, so that is 16 cents per GB for the 1TB model.

Hilbert, do the Real World Benchmarks have any value? It seems to be 3 pages of charts that all say "yep, this is an SSD" when it could be covered by a sentence or two explaining that there is no perceptible difference between SSDs on application loading/performance.

To some yes, to others no. It paints a wide picture. Also, I do not fully agree, these are trace test workloads and some are multiple seconds faster. You can also flip it around as some would question the validity of synthetic benchmarks. In the end, it's about the entire complete picture so that you can make an informed decision.

On other review sites I've seen differences in loading times of different NVMe's / SSD's....I think it comes down to what you're choosing to load....if I remember rightly it was total elapsed time to load into a certain map of a game for instance...something along those lines....so there are differences, but I suppose you gotta choose the right ones. At the same time, it is useful to know that when loading some programs there are no differences.
