Patriot Torqx M28 Series PTX128GS25SSDR 2.5" 128GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

This SSD is crazy fast, programs load very quickly. As advertised, read and write speeds are accurate. Noticed a difference compared to Raptor speeds, definitely responds well. I have not experienced any slow activity or pauses even when the drive is full

I get conflicting info on TRIM and whether or not it is supported. I read how my motherboard does not currently support this but works natively in Win 7

Faster than two RAID 0 (striped disks) Raptors / No Heat / faster boot times

Way way to much money

It is fast, programs load fast (photoshop cs4 in 1.5 seconds) when the system doesn't pause

I noticed my system pauses every now and then (it is really noticeable when I watch movies). It seems my system doesn't respond when I try to open or shut programs for a few seconds. This didn't happen before when I was just using harddrives. I read...

Extremely fast Win7 boot times. After doing some minor tweaks recommended at Patriot's forum the ssd screams even faster! So far no firmware updates have been released which can be good or bad depending on how you look at it ; It is good not to have a...

Make sure to apply the OS tweaks for WinXP/Win7

Torqx SSDs have upgradable firmware. As they fix issues with or otherwise upgrade the software in their controller you will be able to upgrade the controller in your SSD. (Don't lose the jumper!!!) Patriot provides upgrade software on their web site....

Upgrade your firmware to the latest (at least 1819) before you start using the drive as the upgrade wipes out the data. I bought 2 128GB Torqx, one on 11/2 from Newegg for my portable and one 12/24 for my desktop. Both had 1571 firmware. My portable...

Speed - this drive is faster as my 2 300G VelociRaptors in RAID 0. With just a fresh installation of Win 7, both configurations were close in speed. But with the addition of applications and other data loaded on to about 35%+ disk usage, this SSD has...

Price - Very expensive. The performance is awesome, but the $ per Gig ratio is steep ; Samsung Controller - So far no Win 7 TRIM support. No firmware updates appear to be coming. Not sure it matters with the built in garbage collection feature, but...

Super fast. 10 year warranty

Price, but is cheaper than a new mobo and processor. The included tray is incompatible with my Antec Sonata II drive trays. I worked around that though

Fast...... easy to install

None atm
