Team Group today introduced the T-Force GC PRO, its new performance-segment M.2 NVMe Gen 5 SSD. The new T-Force GC PRO is not to be confused with the T-Force GE PRO that Team Group launched in January 2024, although the two appear almost identical. The newer GC PRO is powered by the same InnoGrit "Tacoma" IG5666 controller as the GE PRO, but with slightly toned down speeds.

The GC PRO comes in 2 TB and 4 TB capacity variants, with maximum sequential speeds of 12,500 MB/s reads, with 11,000 MB/s writes. For comparison, the flagship GE PRO does 14,000 MB/s max sequential reads, albeit with the same 11,000 MB/s max sequential writes. The GC PRO is hence designed to stike a slightly lower price point which could see it square off against pre-Max14um Phison-powered SSD models. Both the 2 TB and 4 TB models offer identical sequential transfer speeds, but differ with endurance—1,200 TBW and 2,400 TBW, respectively. Although a heatsink is recommended by the manufacturer, the drive comes with a graphene-coated metal-foil heatspreader. The company didn't reveal pricing, the drives are backed by 5-year warranties.
