Patriot P320 512GB Internal SSD - NVMe PCIe Gen 3x4 - M.2 2280 - Solid State Drive - P320P512GM28

Spot on. Works well, fast write speeds, bought another since.

works amazingly well with crazy high speeds for transferring files, right until you fill the entire drive up then the speeds drop down to stupidly low speeds of like 1MB per second even lower sometimes as low as 24kb per second. try not to fill up the drive completely.

Good price, working well and is fast.

I used this in an old PC that I rebuilt for a friend. I didn't need a super fast SSD since the old PC had only Gen3 NVMe slots and a mediocre CPU, and this was ideal. It was cheap and is significantly faster than the old SATA SSD that was originally in the PC. If you're looking for a good, fast (ish) and cheap drive this comes highly recommended.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆Solid Budget NVMe Drive for Everyday UseI picked up the Patriot P320 256GB to upgrade an older laptop, and for the price, it's a fantastic value. Installation was a breeze thanks to the standard M.2 2280 form factor, and my system recognized it instantly.Performance:- Read speeds hit around 2200 MB/s, and write speeds hover near 1200 MB/s, which is more than enough for booting, file transfers, and general multitasking.- It’s not blazing fast like PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 drives, but for a PCIe 3.0 SSD, it holds its own.Pros:- Great price-to-performance ratio- Reliable for daily tasks and light gaming- Runs cool and quiet- No hiccups during installation or useCons:- No DRAM cache, so performance dips slightly during heavy sustained writes- Not ideal for high-end gaming or video editing workloadsOverall, if you're looking for a budget-friendly NVMe SSD to breathe new life into an older system or build a cost-effective PC, the Patriot P320 256GB is a smart pick. Just don’t expect top-tier speeds—and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Installed as boot disc for older Dell laptop. Kept the old HDD for storage. SSD for Windows and Apps/ Apps data. Working very well. HDD was at 100% before install. Now SSD is about1-2% and the HDD about 1%. Easy to install and load to. Check the spec before purchase to confirm compatibility. If anything changes will update.

Great price and after initialising, simple volume formatting & allocating a Drive letter (all done in Disk Management) the M2 was put into use. It works well so a bargain price paid.

I bought this along with the adapter to convert my late 2014 1.6gh Mac mini intel. The 1.6 is important any speed less(1.4 etc ) there is no port for the mem.Having said that this was a very quick upgrade .I managed to get the Mac to ignore the on board drive and boot from this mem.It has made a considerable difference to Home Assistant, very fast too load , fast after update and snappy on dashboards etcwell pleased

Ho preso questo Patriot P320 da 512GB come disco secondario per giochi e programmi, e devo dire che fa esattamente quello che promette. Essendo un NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4, la differenza rispetto a un vecchio SSD SATA o, peggio, a un hard disk meccanico, è abissale. Il sistema lo ha riconosciuto subito e le velocità di caricamento sono ottime: nei test sequenziali arriva vicino ai 3000 MB/s in lettura, il che lo rende perfetto non solo per l'uso quotidiano, ma anche per gestire file pesanti senza rallentamenti.Anche sotto stress non scalda eccessivamente(35-37 gradi celsius), il che è un buon segno per la longevità del drive. È una soluzione di storage senza troppi extra ma molto solida, ideale per chi vuole un upgrade veloce senza spendere una fortuna in modelli di fascia enthusiast. Se cercate un SSD interno che funzioni bene, sia veloce il giusto e non tradisca le aspettative, questo Patriot è una scelta sicura.

It’s buying for my external enclosure

Awesome for the price in this situation. Got it around 9.2K

📦 RÉCEPTIONLa boîte est bien emballée et le disque bien protégé. Petit bémol : j'ai reçu un disque différent de celui commandé (erreur d'emballage côté fabricant). J'ai immédiatement contacté le vendeur pour signaler l'anomalie.🔧 INSTALLATIONInstallé dans un boîtier NVMe externe (chipset RTL9210) sous Zorin OS (Linux). Reconnu immédiatement sans aucun driver à installer. Le disque apparaît correctement via smartctl avec un résultat SMART : PASSED dès le premier branchement.📊 PERFORMANCES (benchmark KDiskMark, interface USB 3.0)• Lecture séquentielle (SEQ1M Q8T1) : 429 MB/s• Écriture séquentielle (SEQ1M Q8T1) : 420 MB/s• Lecture séquentielle (SEQ1M Q1T1) : 382 MB/s• Écriture séquentielle (SEQ1M Q1T1) : 354 MB/s• Lecture aléatoire 4K (Q32T1) : 141 MB/s• Écriture aléatoire 4K (Q32T1) : 30 MB/sNote : ces résultats sont limités par l'interface USB 3.0 (~500 MB/s max). En direct sur carte mère PCIe, les performances seraient nettement supérieures.🐧 COMPATIBILITÉ LINUXParfaitement compatible avec Zorin OS (Ubuntu 22.04). Aucune manipulation nécessaire, plug & play immédiat.✅ CONCLUSIONSSD rapide, silencieux, bien construit. Idéal pour un usage en stockage externe ou secondaire. Compatible Linux sans aucune configuration. Je recommande.
