Patriot Wildfire 120GB Review

AS SSD v1.1.3466.29641: AS SSD is a benchmark designed for the speeds of solid state drives. However, it will also work for traditional hard drives. It is designed to measure the read and write speeds and access times for set block sizes. It also assigns a score to the read, write, and overall performance of the drive.

The Patriot Wildfire drive delivers excellent read performance in three out of four benchmarks and delivers a score very close to that of the Vertex 3. The use of 32nm MLC NAND and a Sandforce 2200 series controller helps this drive deliver this kind of performance.
