Patriot Memory Viper VP4300 VP4300-2TBM28H 2 TB

Compact M.2 SSD for gaming with two removable radiators, as well as support for the PCI-E 4.0 interface and the NVMe 2.0 protocol. It is part of the overclocking Viper series, which previously gained fame in the RAM market and now intends to achieve success in the SSD market. Despite its advanced technical characteristics, in terms of cost, it is located at the junction of the entry-level and mid-price segments, being an affordable alternative to gaming SSDs WD Black and Corsair MP.

It is also one of the most flexible drives that has passed strict certification for the Sony PlayStation5 console. The Patriot Memory Viper VP4300 solid state machine is built on the Innogrit IG5236 platform and equipped with 96-layer flash memory from Micron. Compared to the first generation Innogrit controllers, the manufacturer has slightly improved the architecture and significantly reduced the heating level.

According to the manufacturer, the new platform provides an optimal balance between final cost, drive reliability and throughput, providing maximum read speeds of up to 7400 MB/s. In addition to this, Patriot made sure that even those users whose motherboards do not have standard cooling for M.2 slots have the opportunity to organize an effective heat sink for the Viper VP4300. Therefore, the package includes two replaceable radiators: massive aluminium and low-profile graphene. The drive comes with a five-year manufacturer's warranty, and the available rewrite capacity is an impressive 1,600 TB. In addition to the option with 2 TB of memory, you can also find more affordable options with 1 TB of memory.
