Pros:
Just put it in my desktop so I can't comment on longevity. It works fine for my standard household needs; surfing the web, editing pictures, using Microsoft products.
Install was very easy; I replaced a 250gb boot drive by cloning it using Easeus Todo (free version). Painless if you have power and data cables available.
Cons: None that I can see.
Overall Review: SSDs have become a commodity; for most of us price is king as long as the reviews are OK. At the time of my purchase this drive was the best value proposition.
Pros: Blazing fast start ups with this ssd.
Cons: none
Overall Review: Will buy again.
Pros: Fast, lots of storage, found a good deal.
Cons: Bought as game storage. System would lock up a little while into gaming. Moved known stable programs to drive with same result--full system freeze.
Overall Review: I've had decent experiences with Patriot memory before. If this SSD worked in a stable way, it'd be a great drive. But I'm not about to have my otherwise solid system lock up every couple of minutes.
Pros:
Low cost SSD is good value for almost 1TB (after formatting it's around 930GB the way Windows measures it).
Good Read speeds.
Good Write speeds for files up to several GBs in size.
Cons: Heavy, large Write tasks of many GBs will take longer as the Write speed tends to slow down after the first 15 or 20 seconds of Writing. This is pretty standard on low cost SSDs, and it won't matter for everyday use by most people. Power users and content creators may wish to choose a more premium model which handles Write-intensive work faster.

UPDATE 1-6-2020:
Fourteen days ago I contacted Patriot to ask why the Burst 480GB and Burst 960GB models are not shown in the available product selection when requesting tech support or replacement under warranty. I also told them the Burst product data sheet (a PDF) states that the Burst SSD is available in TWO capacities: 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, and 960GB. Umm, wait, that's four, isn't it? Further, I told them the Patriot Store describes the Burst SSD as being available in THREE capacities: 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, and 960GB. Clearly, someone at Patriot can't count. As of now, none of this has been corrected on their website. Have to wonder what kind of service one will get from a company that can't even get their product descriptions listed properly. We have Patriot RAM memory in one of our computers. I sure hope we never have a problem with it and need to ask for service.
Original Review:
There's a problem on the Patriot website. When checking their Tech Support/Contact Us form I discovered a glaring omission. When filling in the request form you must select your product from a step-by-step dropdown list. No problem selecting SSD, then 2.5-inch SATA III, then Burst. BUT, then you must select which capacity and the only choices are 120GB and 240GB. The 480GB model and 960GB model are not shown in the list.
Two possible explanations for this come to mind. The first possibility is that it is simply an oversight on their website. The second possibility is that the larger capacity models (480GB & 960GB) are "gray' imports and, therefore, Patriot will NOT support these larger capacity models under Warranty.
I filled in a Patriot Support request form to tell them about the problem. Maybe that will help fix the problem, who knows?
Pros:
Great price!
Plenty of game storage
Fast read/write
Cons: None yet
Overall Review: Got this to store my games on my PC. It's working great so far and I love the price!
Pros: Nothing
Cons:
Drive does not come with any software to copy your old drive
Patriot website has zero support for all their SSD's
No, why to download driver because they don't have any drivers to download, So if you are instaling an OS to the driver, the OS does not see the driver and it asks you for drivers.
No software nothing
Overall Review: Don't buy this drive buy the Samsung, you pay more, but it comes with software to make a copy of your old drive.
Pros: I bought three 240gb and one 480gb for laptops and they work so fast and well that I should have done this several months ago. Being these were all older laptops, I installed Windows 10 new and used the kept nothing option.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: Great product and easy to install.
