The American manufacturer Patriot Memory keeps close feedback with its customers, listens to feedback and adequately responds to criticism. Largely thanks to this approach, the company managed to break into the second-wave solid-state drive market and successfully gain a foothold on it. One example of a successful brand policy is the Viper VPN110, a compact M.2 SSD from the Viper overclocker series, equipped with a recognizable jet black heatsink with wide black fins.
Patriot uses the same coolers for Viper's DDR modules. The heat sink effectively dissipates heat from the printed circuit board and memory chips, so that the operating temperature of the device does not exceed 65 ° C. It is inconvenient that the manufacturer decided to glue it to the PCB, so it will not be easy to remove or replace it. Considering that the heat sink turned out to be quite massive, it is unlikely that it will be possible to stick it into a modern laptop or ultrabook.
Therefore, the manufacturer positions the Viper VPN110 as an affordable solution for gaming or work PCs and laptops. During the production of the drive, the manufacturer decided to abandon the use of the PCI-E 4.0 interface in favor of the more affordable and popular PCI-E 3.0. At the same time, the company's engineers tried to take the maximum from a slightly outdated technology, thanks to which the linear read speed was raised to 3300 MB / s, and the linear write speed to 3000 MB / s. In fact, this is one of the fastest solid state old format. The speed of random processing of small-sized 4K files reaches 500 thousand IOPS. The popular dual-core Silicon Motion SM2262EN controller acts as the brain of the Patriot Memory Viper VPN110, which can work with an external RAM cache and does not get too hot when copying really large data arrays.

High-quality optimization from a Polish brand
The American manufacturer Patriot Memory has hit the bull's-eye in recent years with its SSD drives and RAM modules. A competent approach to development is worth thanking for this - the manufacturer listens to its customers and does not seek to impose expensive and often dubious fashion innovations on them. For example, in the Viper VPN110 SSD, they abandoned the use of the PCI-E 4.0 bus in favor of the more affordable and popular PCI-E 3.0 interface.
One of the fastest PCI-E 3.0 SSDs
As a result, the Patriot Viper VPN110 is one of the fastest PCI-E 3.0 SSDs available. It runs the popular dual-core Silicon Motion SM2262EN controller, which can work with an external cache RAM chip and does not get too hot when copying really large data arrays. Thanks to the SM2262EN, the manufacturer was able to raise the linear read speed up to 3300 MB/s, and the linear write speed up to 3000 MB/s. Random processing of small-sized 4K files reaches 500 thousand IOPS.
Massive metal radiator
In addition to a decent speed, the drive stands out visually, since the entire area of the printed circuit board is completely covered by a rather thick black aluminium heatsink with an interesting texture and brand logo. The heatsink provides good heat removal and dissipation from the surface of the SSD, which is why the temperature of the controller rarely goes beyond 65 degrees Celsius. The only negative is that, for some mysterious reason, the manufacturer did not screw, but glued the heatsink to the printed circuit board, so it will not be easy to remove or replace it, which can be a problem when installed in laptops and ultrabooks. Actually, that's why the manufacturer emphasizes it as a solution for desktop and compact PCs.
