Patriot Viper VP4000 Mini 500GB M.2 2230 SSD
500GBPCIe Gen4 x4 NVMeUp to 4,700MB/sM.2 2230 Short
The Patriot Viper VP4000 Mini 500GB, part number VP4000M500GM23, is a compact short-form PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD built specifically for space-restricted devices such as the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, Microsoft Surface and other handheld gaming consoles and ultra-thin laptops. The 22 x 30mm single-sided design fits where a standard 2280 drive cannot, while delivering fast Gen4 speeds.
With sequential reads up to 4,700MB/s and writes up to 1,700MB/s, the VP4000 Mini gives handhelds and thin laptops a fast storage upgrade. Carrying EAN 4711378426342 and MPN VP4000M500GM23, this single-sided drive uses 3D TLC NAND with SmartECC and Host Memory Buffer support and is backed by a 5-year limited warranty. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Compatibility note
This is the short M.2 2230 size (22 x 30mm), designed for handhelds like the Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Legion Go and for devices that specifically require 2230. It will not fit a standard M.2 2280 slot as a full-length drive does — if your desktop or laptop takes the longer 2280 size, choose a 2280 NVMe SSD instead.
Best For
✓ Steam Deck storage upgrades
✓ ASUS ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go
✓ Microsoft Surface devices
✓ Ultra-thin laptops needing 2230

Key Features
Compact M.2 2230 design
At just 22 x 30mm and single-sided, the VP4000 Mini fits handheld consoles and ultra-thin laptops where a standard 2280 drive simply will not go.
PCIe Gen4 speeds up to 4,700MB/s
Sequential reads up to 4,700MB/s mean fast game loads and quick file access — a big upgrade over the original Steam Deck’s drive.
Low power, runs cool
A power-efficient single-sided design keeps heat and battery drain low, ideal for the tight thermal and power limits of handheld gaming devices.
SmartECC & 5-year warranty
3D TLC NAND with SmartECC data protection and HMB support, backed by a 5-year Patriot limited warranty for dependable everyday use.
Technical Specifications
Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
The Patriot Viper VP4000 Mini is purpose-built for upgrading handheld gaming devices like the Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Legion Go, plus the occasional ultra-thin laptop needing the short M.2 size. At 500GB it is an affordable entry capacity; the writes are modest for a Gen4 drive, but read speeds and real-world game loading are strong for a handheld. The single most important thing is to confirm your device uses 2230, not 2280. If it takes the longer drive, pick a 2280 SSD from our internal SSDs instead.
Buyer's Guide
Buy it if
You want to upgrade a Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Legion Go or other 2230 handheld or thin device with a compact, fast 500GB Gen4 drive, backed by a 5-year warranty.
Skip it if
Your device uses the standard M.2 2280 size (most desktops and laptops) — choose a 2280 SSD instead — or you want higher write speed and more capacity.
Also consider
The VP4000 Mini in 1TB/2TB for more handheld storage, the Kingston NV3 2230 or Transcend MTE310S as alternatives, or a 2280 NVMe drive for standard systems.
