Patriot's P300 comes mounted in a blister pack with the drive's capacity clearly labelled at the top of the pack. The rear of the pack has multilingual bullet points highlighting some of the drives features along with a couple of icons displaying the drive's compatibility with Windows and MAC systems.

The P300 is built on a single-sided PCB. Under the large white product sticker sit two 512GB 96-Layer 3D TLC NAND packages along with the Silicon Motion SM2263XT 4-channel controller.  The SM2263XT is a DRAM-less design that uses HMB (Host Memory Buffer) technology to perform caching duties so there is no cache IC to find room for.
