CX2, not GX2
TeamGroup's T253X6 part number is the CX2 line. Some retailers list this code as a GX2, which is a different range. Worth checking if you are cross referencing listings.
Where 1TB SATA belongs
A machine with no free M.2 slot. A laptop with only a 2.5 inch bay. A second drive alongside an existing NVMe boot drive. In all three, the SATA interface is the constraint, not a choice, and this drive is at the ceiling of what that interface allows.
If your machine has a free M.2 slot, an NVMe drive at similar money will be several times faster on paper. Whether you notice depends heavily on what you do.
NAND type and DRAM configuration are not disclosed by TeamGroup for the CX2. We are not going to state figures the manufacturer does not publish.
