Compact M.2 SSD for gaming with two removable radiators, as well as support for the PCI-E 4.0 interface and the NVMe 2.0 protocol. It is part of the overclocking Viper series, which previously gained fame in the RAM market and now intends to achieve success in the SSD market. Despite its advanced technical characteristics, in terms of cost, it is located at the junction of the entry-level and mid-price segments, being an affordable alternative to gaming SSDs WD Black and Corsair MP.
It is also one of the most flexible drives that has passed strict certification for the Sony PlayStation5 console. The Patriot Memory Viper VP4300 solid state machine is built on the Innogrit IG5236 platform and equipped with 96-layer flash memory from Micron. Compared to the first generation Innogrit controllers, the manufacturer has slightly improved the architecture and significantly reduced the heating level.
According to the manufacturer, the new platform provides an optimal balance between final cost, drive reliability and throughput, providing maximum read speeds of up to 7400 MB/s. In addition to this, Patriot made sure that even those users whose motherboards do not have standard cooling for M.2 slots have the opportunity to organize an effective heat sink for the Viper VP4300. Therefore, the package includes two replaceable radiators: massive aluminium and low-profile graphene. The drive comes with a five-year manufacturer's warranty, and the available rewrite capacity is an impressive 1,600 TB. In addition to the option with 2 TB of memory, you can also find more affordable options with 1 TB of memory.

Run leader
The Patriot Viper VP4300 is the fastest SSD to date and is likely to remain so until the release of the fifth generation of the PCI-E bus. It develops maximum speed in the case of the 2 TB version, while the one-terabyte reads just as fast, but writes a little slower.
A fresh look
It is built on the controller of the young company InnoGrit — IG5236, codenamed Reinier (besides it, InnoGrit has only one simpler controller — IG5216 with PCI-E 3.0). Despite the inexperience, InnoGrit managed to make the PCI-E 4.0 controller faster than the recognized market veterans Phison and Silicon Motion.
overheat protection
Thus, the VP4300 sequential read speed reaches 7400 MB / s, and sequential write — 6800 MB / s. The volume of the virtual SLC cache is 10 percent of the volume of the disk, and after it is full, the write speed drops to about 2000 MB / s. Theoretically, the speed can drop even lower — up to 1000 MB / s — due to overheating of the controller.
double set
But in fact, this will definitely not happen, because the Viper VP4300 comes with two heatsinks for different tasks. The first is thin, made of graphene, in case the M.2 SSD slot is under the graphics card. The second is thicker, made of aluminium, for the most efficient heat dissipation, it is recommended to install two radiators at once.
