- Weight: Approximately 60 g to 80 g
- Power consumption: In operation approx. 2 W, in idle approx. 0.5 W
Features
1. SATA III Interface: The Patriot Burst uses the SATA III interface, which allows a maximum data transfer rate of up to 6 Gb/s. This offers a noticeable improvement in performance compared to older SATA generations.
2. High Performance: The SSD offers sequential read and write speeds of up to 560 MB/s and 540 MB/s respectively, making it ideal for most everyday applications and system operations.
3. TRIM Support: The Burst series supports the TRIM command, which helps optimize the performance of the SSD by informing the operating system which data blocks are no longer in use so that the SSD can clean them up efficiently.
4. Warranty: The Patriot Burst SSD typically comes with a 3-year limited warranty that covers the hard drive against manufacturing defects or faults.
5. Error Correction: The SSD contains error correction mechanisms such as ECC (Error Correction Code) that help ensure the integrity of the stored data.
6. Energy Efficiency: The low power consumption of the SSD contributes to energy efficiency and can extend the battery life of laptops.
Areas of application
- System Upgrade: The Patriot Burst SSD is an excellent choice for upgrading older computers that still have traditional hard drives. Replacing it with an SSD will dramatically improve boot times and overall system performance.
- Laptops: Due to its compact size and low power consumption, the Patriot Burst SSD is ideal for use in laptops where it can provide higher performance and longer battery life.
- Desktops: In desktop computers, the Patriot Burst can be used as a primary drive to store the operating system and applications, or as an additional drive for additional storage needs.
- Storage Expansion: The SSD can also be used in external enclosures to create portable storage solutions, ideal for backups and data transportation.
Advantages
- Good performance: The Patriot Burst offers solid performance with fast read and write speeds that are more than sufficient for most everyday applications and tasks.
- Cost Efficiency: Compared to other SSDs, the Burst series offers good value for money, especially in the smaller capacities.
- Energy efficiency: The low power consumption is particularly advantageous for mobile devices such as laptops.
- Easy Upgrade: The SSD is easy to install and can provide significant performance improvements in older systems.
Restrictions
- Capacity: While the Patriot Burst is available in a variety of capacities, it may be less suitable for users who require very large amounts of storage. Larger capacities tend to be more expensive and can cost more.
- Performance: Although the Burst series offers solid performance, it may be less powerful compared to newer SSD technologies such as NVMe SSDs that offer higher speeds and performance.
- Storage Type: The use of TLC NAND means that the SSD's lifespan and performance may be slightly lower compared to MLC or SLC NAND SSDs, especially under intensive use.
In summary, the Patriot Burst is a solid and cost-effective SSD solution that is well suited for users who plan to upgrade from traditional hard drives to an SSD without spending a fortune. It offers good performance, power efficiency and is easy to install, making it suitable for both desktops and laptops.
