will never buy a patriot product again 08/22/2010
This review is from: Patriot Torqx 2.5" 128GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) PFZ128GS25SSDR
Pros:
was super fast when it worked
Cons:
cant update drive firmware without wiping out the drive...seriously. owned 2 drives, ran in raid 0. both failed.
Overall Review:
I would be bothered by a bad batch of drives, but i bought these 2 drives months apart & they both failed. Patriot needs to fess up that they screed the pooch on this product and make things right for it's customers. It looks like this product is now discontinued since they're not instock anywhere. Or they just rebranded it and started calling it "Inferno".
Manufacturer Response:
Dear maui,
I'm sorry for any inconvenience you've had with the Torqx drive. Your drive is backed by a ten year warranty. Please don't hesitate to contact support@patriotmem.com to exercise the warranty option for your drive or if you have any further technical questions. Furthermore the reason why the drives are being discontinued is because the components are not available anymore. The Inferno is a completely different drive with a different controller.
Thank You for choosing Patriot Memory.
Kind Regards,
Patriot Memory Support
