Review on Patriot Viper VP4300 Solid State Computer Components by Simo Whisperer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works on PS5 with either heatsink.

Works on my PS5. I have a 1TB drive - the instructions say you can use either heatsink for extra heat dissipation by first placing the thinner graphene heatsink on top of the graphene, then the larger aluminum heatsink. I did this and there is a lot of blank space at the top. After formatting the hard drive, the read speed changed a few times from 6000 to 6400. ATTENTION - before installing heatsinks, pay attention to how the chip is aligned in PS5. If you place the aluminum heatsink on the wrong side, it will be too big because the PS5's gap on the bottom of the drive is only 2mm. Otherwise - it's good to go to PS5. I will update if anything changes.

Pros
  • Serial (ATTO): up to 7400 MB/s read and up to 6800 MB/s write; 4K Aligned Random Write: up to 800K IOPs
Cons
  • Doesn't work well
