The Patriot Memory Pyro randomly dismounts sometimes when the computer comes out of sleep mode. The drive doesn't come with a drive bay converter to make it work with desktops
And its data transfer rates could use some improvement
Patriot's first entry using the second generation SandForce SSD processor was the Wildfire, which was designed for optimal performance via expensive 32nm toggle NAND. The Pyro however, takes a more cost effective approach by using a less expensive 25nm...
What can I say that the results have not already shown. With the new SandForce Processor the Patriot was able to beat the Curcial RealSSD. Now I will have to say that the Crucial is using an older Processor, but it is still selling for a higher price t...
Abstract: Unless you have never exposed yourself to the outside world before, chances are that you have heard of Nero. No, I am not talking about Ahead Software's Nero Burning ROM, but rather, Roman Emperor Nero from AD 54 to 68. Known for his obsession with fir...
Within each generation of SSDs there is always a controller design which most companies tend to gravitate towards. This time SandForce has taken over and we’ve only seen the beginning of what promises to be a glut of rebadged mid-range SF2281-based dri...

Ever since their release, SSDs have proven to provide an extremely great performance increase. However, this performance increase comes at a cost, as we've seen SSDs range from $100 to up to $1000. As newer drives are released, the price of the older ...

Abstract: Patriot have been a big contender in the memory market for quite some time and are regarded by consumers to have some of the best memory kits on the market, and with this in mind, it was only right that they would branch out into other market areas and se...

Patriot have two excellent performance oriented 120GB solid state drives on the market now: The more expensive Wildfire delivers ultimate incompressible data throughput, but with a wallet sapping asking price of £225 inc vat. The Pyro, which we reviewed t...

Suffered with sequential transfer rates
Since its inception the SATA 3 SSD has had enthusiasts drooling over faster transfer rates and enticing them to get their wallets out. Never has there been a better time to invest with prices being reasonably affordable and a vast spectrum of motherbo...
Patriot's Pyro SSD offers tremendous SandForce performance at a tempting price, and with Corsair, OCZ and others all pushing practically-identical propositions, the cost of second-generation SandForce ownership should only get lower. The Good Hits sp...
