Patriot adding three more Inferno SSDs to its offer

Patriot Memory has decided on expanding its Inferno family of SandForce SF-1200-powered SSDs through the addition of three more capacities - 60GB, 120GB and 240GB, so as to provide more choice for people looking to buy a modern solid state drive and experience under 1ms access times.

The three new drives make use of MLC (multi-level cell) NAND Flash memory, have a SATA 3.0 Gbps interface, a MTBF (mean time before failure) of over 1.5 million hours, and are capable of maximum sequential read and write speeds of 285 MB/s and 275 MB/s, respectively.

"The Inferno series of SSDs are the fastest and most exciting that Patriot has yet brought to the market," states Les Henry, Vice President of Engineering at Patriot. "Our Inferno series has been well received and reviewed. We are excited to expand the product family with the introduction of the new larger capacity Inferno drives as well as the new 60GB capacity option. With the addition of the 60GB capacity drive, enthusiasts can enjoy the blistering performance of the Inferno SSD at a more affordable price point making it ideal as a boot drive in a high performance system."

Inferno SSDs are offered with a five-year warranty.
