An excellent SSD whose performance levels are up there with the best. The biggest fault we have is that it is not sufficiently widely available on the market; it is very difficult to find, and when you can find models for sale, their price is often ove...
Fantastic all-round performance, Uses the popular Sandforce SSD controller, Five year warranty
Suffers from the SSD price premium
Red hot performance from the latest solid state storage technology. That's Patriot's plan with its new Inferno 100GB SSD. Just in case you haven't got the message, Patriot has dressed the Inferno in funky, bright red anodised threads.Of course, it's wh...
As long as the firmware is up to date and drivers are running properly, SandForce is still the ideal controller for users who want optimal performance without spending too darn much money. Our testing revealed Patriot’s Inferno 120GB SSD is as good or ...
So where are we after all that testing?It's difficult to say with any certainty. For every test that showed the fearsome potential of the SandForce controller paired to the Intel MLC, we have one that makes it appear like an absolute dog. In relative t...
If Patriot's 120GB Inferno was the only SandForce-powered SSD on the market, we'd be lauding the drive for its super-quick performance. Realistically, the drive is one of many, and when put up against the award-winning OCZ Vertex 2, the Inferno's perfo...

Though it excelled in many of our synthetic tests, the Patriot Inferno SSD doesn't distinguish itself much in practice from the existing SandForce drives. This isn't a bad thing though: these drives are all very fast, so it's not like you can really l...
As we’ve come to expect from SandForce driven solid state drives, the Patriot Inferno 120GB offers excellent performance overall. In every one of our tests, the Patriot Inferno competed favorably with other SandForce-based products from OCZ and Corsai...
Price per GB is quite high, as with all high performance SSDs,
Patriot has released a solid product with the Inferno SSD. As expected it performs very similar to the other 120GB Sandforce drives we reviewed earlier, the OCZ Agility 120GB. Sometimes the Patriot was a bit faster, sometimes the Agility 2 took the lead. When it came to battery life the Patriot did noticeably better. Currently the Patriot can be found for a "street price" of $289 online, which do
Looking at the results, the Inferno scores even better than the previous SandForce-based solid-state drive tested, in general. It only really faltered in the Windows 7 boot test, where it was behind by one mere second slower, and the AS SSD benchmark w...
