About This Product
The Patriot Burst Elite 120GB is a 2.5-inch SATA SSD. It offers a significant speed upgrade over traditional hard drives for basic system tasks and application loading. This drive is suitable for users on a very tight budget seeking to replace an HDD or for use as a boot drive in older systems where NVMe is not an option. Its small capacity and SATA interface limit its utility for large game libraries or demanding applications compared to NVMe SSDs.
