Patriot Pyro 120GB Solid State Drive Review

The exterior casing on the Pyro is very stylish to say the least with a gun metal grey surface and silver edging which really gives an upmarket feel and style to the drive. The front is mainly covered by a Pyro sticker telling you what capacity drive you have and that it uses a SATA III 6Gbps interface for those who were unsure.

Turning the drive over, we see the grey casing but this time is taken up by a large sticker with several bar codes and part numbers printed upon it which is especially handy in terms of technical support issues if they may arise.

The drive can be mounted into a chassis or into a laptop and four screw holes are present, with two on each the side of the drive.

In their usual locations, we find the SATA data and SATA power connectors.

Always keen to see what makes things tick, we got straight into taking the drive apart, of which we don’t recommend for the average user as it will void your warranty. We find sixteen Micron NAND 8GB memory modules of which eight are featured on each side.

The other side shows the other eight Micron NAND chips as well as at the heart of it; the SandForce SF-2281 controller.
