Phison controller with some kind of Toshiba NAND.
I'm almost 10 minutes in to the first loop and its only written 4GiB. Definitely not a suitable testing drive. I don't know what it would be suitable for... Its basically a Compact Flash card in a 2.5 inch form factor.
The drive's chassis is maybe the most attractive I've seen, but this is the first SSD I've ever wished ill upon. J.Microns are better than this by a long way I think, and they're not very good.
This... is sad. I wasn't expecting much, but this is unimaginably terrible.
Shame on Patriot for ever thinking these drives were a good idea. And this is with the "good" Version 3FW.
This is a Hall of Shame drive. It's going in the closet, never to be spoken of again.
