See if this sounds at all familiar dilemma. Your PC 's performance will again take your mechanical hard drive, as it turns and stumbles to his records to get your data. Replace it with a Solid State Drive is a surefire cure, but the high-end ones cost too much, and you don 't want to settle for less. Are you out of luck? That depends on where Patriot Memory prices of its new Pyro SSD SATA 6 Gbps line.

The new drives are by Pyro sand-force 's powerful SF-2281 controller, the same one that' s comes in other high-end SSDs are used. In this case it means that sequential reads up to 550 MB / s and sequential write performance of up to 515MB / s, together with up to 85,000 4K random write IOPS. In short, \ it 's fast, but after Patriot, it will carry a price tag that his performance would not expect.

"The Patriot Memory Pyro will continue to expand massively, what can consumers expect from performance-class solid state drives," William Lai William Lai Patriot product manager said in a statement. "With the proximity of enterprise-level performance through the use of new SandForce SF-2281 coupled with Patriot Memory 's reputation, Pyro will deliver unmatched price per performance."

We want to know how that sounds, the only problem is Patriot didn 't follow this statement with price information. As a reference point, Patriot 's similar spec' (read up to 555MB / s, 520MB / s write, and 85,000 IOPS) d Wildfire SSDs streets for $ 300 (120GB) and $ 520 (240GB), and presumably the company 's sell for less Pyro line.

Pyro in his ship Patriot 60GB, 120GB, 240GB and capacities, all three in the 2.5-inch form factor and with the latest firmware 3.1.9.
