An excellent SSD whose performance levels are up there with the best. The biggest fault we have is that it is not sufficiently widely available on the market; it is very difficult to find, and when you can find models for sale, their price is often ove...
If Patriot's 120GB Inferno was the only SandForce-powered SSD on the market, we'd be lauding the drive for its super-quick performance. Realistically, the drive is one of many, and when put up against the award-winning OCZ Vertex 2, the Inferno's perfo...
Abstract: The SSD market continues evolving. We got our hands on six drives we hadn't yet tested, including Samsung’s 470-series, and ran them through our benchmark suite. All told, this roundup includes a total of 24 SSDs to compare. Which drive is right for yo...

None that I found
Not really following Patriot that closely until now I am very impressed with the Inferno solid state drive. It out-performed our other 2 120GB SandForce-based drives in most of the tests. I was really impressed with HDTune write benchmark and our ATT...
