Patriot meanwhile have doubled their SSD cache and added a 10-year warranty. The Torqx M28 SSD has been specifically designed with cutting-edge technology by increasing the DRAM cache from 64MB to 128MB of cache in conjunction with its current NAND flash technology.

Compared to today's hard drives, the Torqx SSD provides for better stability, faster access times, and lower power consumption.
