Team Group’s New Generation Super Xtreem S3 SATA3 SSD Shakes the Market

In order to satisfy the new generation’s need for extreme speed, the world’s leading memory storage product brand Team Group Inc. released the first generation 2.5 inch SATA III SSD to firmly display their ambition to grab market share. SSD S3 uses the high standard SATA3 6Gb/s interface, and is equipped the enthusiast level SandForce controller as the core helmsman; when compared to the previous generation SATA 2, not only does it maintain Team Group’s consistent high standard product stability and security, it also comprehensively increases the reading and writing speed, leading SSD’s super efficiency towards a new revolutionary realm.



In order to welcome SSD’s next extreme speed evolution generation, Team Group has spent a long time on careful R&D, and finally released the all-new super efficient Xtreem S3. Pursuing detailed speed performance just like professional enthusiasts, S3 perfectly displayed the highest reading speed of 550MB/s, along with an impressive writing speed of 520MB/s (240GB). The random writing speed even reached as high as 90000 IOPS (input/output operations per second). It also integrated the three major protective airbags, S.M.A.R.T self monitoring, RAISE and ECC correction, allowing speeding professionals to activate the turbine speed at any time and enjoy the pleasure of leading far ahead. S3 is released with a total of four capacity specifications from 60GB~480GB, allowing different levels of speeding enthusiasts to enjoy S3’s exceptional performance.

Team Group Inc. is a leading manufacturer of memory storage products, and provides the ultimate solution to satisfy consumer need for storing and sharing media and data. Team Group offers a 2 Years warranty and repair/replacement service on all SSD products.

"Xtreem" ...Jesus I almost wouldn't buy it just because of that.

Also did anyone notice that it just comes with a 2 year warranty as opposed to the industry standard 3 years?

LOL lost in translation GO TURBINE SPEED MODE!!!!!!
It sounds like some cheesy power rangers or transformers shout LOL.

At the rate that kids are grown up on mobile phones this should be normal nerd shouts by now.

Must mean something important or impressive in Japanese if correctly translated.
It all fits in with the cheesy color.

Either way nice to see some decent performing ssd's, I wonder does this ssd glow in the dark or under a black light ?

Comedy gold. I wonder if the companies who put stuff like this out ever find out how ridiculous their target audience thinks it sounds. But then again, I can't remember the last time I read marketing spooge before deciding to buy something.

I want to punch the people that put these releases out, without pricing info, right in the balls or ovaries, whichever may apply.

From the way this press release reads, I think it's a translation from a different language. It certainly doesn't follow AP guidelines.

With marketing copy fail like that, I wonder about the quality of all management decisions and the quality of the technical engineers!? I think I will avoid Team products from now on. In other news, Team introduces all new updated extreem professional lucky turbine SSD in order to satisfy more cowbell.

If you want very fast ssds you go with a Pci E variant. They however cost way more n are limited on space. TO TELL TRUTH ID HAVE A LARGE SSD TO PUT OS ON N THE PATCHES N SOFTWARE SUCH AS WEBBROWSERS IM PROGRAMS N FLASH/SHOCKWAVE/JAVA/PDF/ANTIVIRUS/ANTIHACK. NOT SURE BOUT SWAPSPACE/PAGING FILE anymore...

Team makes good stuffs

I think many asian based companies got this kind of problems.
But Team does make good products, they just don't have good technical writers/translators.
