Today, we’ll be taking a quick look at the Patriot Viper VP4300 M.2 PCIE Gen4 x4 2TB SSD. It’s powered by the super fast Rainier IG5236 SSD controller from Innogrit, and supports the PCI-E 4.0 Gen4x4 standard for super fast data transfer, offering a read speeds of up to 7,400Mb/sec, and a write speed of up to 6,800Mb/sec. Our review sample has a total capacity of 2TB of 3D NAND flash memory, and comes with SLC caching and DRAM cache buffer, as well as supporting NVMe v1.4. The package includes 2 new, low profile heatshields to choose from. One is a sleek-looking aluminum heatshield, while the other is a unique super thin graphene heatshield, all of which will help reduce full load temperatures.
