TeamGroup. Yay or Nay ?

Greetings, looking at picking up a 1TB SSD and the deal on the TeamGroup L5 Lite is looking pretty good, but I've personally never heard of them. Are they a reliable manufacturer ? I don't want to drop £180 on a cheaper deal if I'll have to look at replacing it sooner rather than later. If anyone's had experiences with them, good or bad, can you let me know please ?

Thanks

They may be a bigger storage brand over the pond but all my DDR4 RAM is TG due to the OCUK prices and no issue with it.

I was thinking of TG storage for my next purchases for SSD as I've been a bit obsessed with Samsung M.2 NVME boot drives and for larger game drives etc. they are overkill in normal use.

Sounds good, it's for my gaming rig so should be fine hopefully. Keep filling up with games and recordings but need something a bit faster, think it's my only non SSD left now.

Why bother with Team Group when you can get Samsung/Crucial for the same price or even less? At least you have good manufacturers warranty them.

Just saw a good price and fancied it but never heard of them, I'm by no means finished digging for offers but I've got vouchers to use too and I'm running out of things to pick up lol the only thinks I'm due to upgrade anytime soon are my monitors and this other HDD and I'll be dropping a lot on my next lot of monitors I think

I've been using TeamGroup RAM for years, and installed a couple of their SSDs into other machines, and it's all been solid for a good price. I've got no problems recommending them on my limited experience. I doubt OCUK would make such a big deal about their products if there were reliability issues.

Good to hear, cheers for that
