Patriot Memory recently introduced the Inferno series of solid state discs (SSD). The Patriot Inferno SSD offers all these great features found in SSD such fast transfer speeds, improved system responsiveness, quicker boot times, and shorter application loading times over traditional hard disk drive storage solutions.
Patriot's Inferno series, available in 100GB and 200GB capacities, is designed around the highly acclaimed SF-1200 processor series. Paired with MLC NAND Flash the Inferno drives promise to deliver sequential read and write speeds of 285MB/s and 275MB/s respectively. SandForce DuraClass technology also provides enhanced endurance and reliability by an average of 20x over traditional SSD controllers through innovative write technology and Wear Leveling.
We have already tested some products based on the SF-1222 controller, and most of them have demonstrated high operational performance and speed. Today we will test the 100GB Patriot Inferno SSD, model PI100GS25SSDR, against some other storage solutions on the market.
