The new SSD Thread (Benchmarks, Brands, News and Advice)

I'm really curious about this Patriot SSD. It is priced as an OCZ Core but maybe it does not have the same problems. This mini review says it does not suffer from slow writes like OCZ Core.

Now Im more tempted...

What the hell... I will buy it, if it doesnt work Ill resell it here for almost the double .

Maybe wait a bit more because Anandtech seems to think that Patriot performs the same as OCZ Core.

Thanks for the heads up. Maybe I should wait for a price cut in the intel one.

Well there's another thread going on about this Patriot SSD and it seems that the V2 of the Patriot does not have the Jmicron controller.

I'm looking forward to see some reviews of the Patriot V2.

If the Patriot shakes out to work well, I will get one. If not, I will have to wait for Intel price break. Sometimes it seems the Internet actually gets in the way of accurate information with so many sources and such a rush to be first.

For instance, I do not want to read conflicting reviews. I simply want to know:

What controller does the Patriot v2 use?

And does it stutter?

I mean, 2 rather simple questions. Not like, "How does a Black Hole actually work?"

So, let's work on getting an accurate answer and run with it! Dave

What controller does the Patriot v2 use?
No clue. According to an official post from Patriot, it does NOT use Jmicron.
And does it stutter?
The current reviews say NO. However, there isn't enough reviews to determine/guarantee if this is true or not.

I'll let you guys know about the 64GB Patroit V.2, I just ordered it from ZZF for $209 with a $40 MIR = $169.
