Good Drive
So far so good. I have been looking for a replacement for the PNY Elite 1TB (was it 960 GB?), which is no longer available. This PNY Pro Elite V2 1TB external SSD was something to try. And it works.My system is an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X in an ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard. Pretty fast. I copied a single file of 375,809,638,400 bytes (350 GiB) from a fast hard disk to the SSD in 24 minutes, for a pace of 260 MB/s, or 249 MiB/s.Compared with the manufacturer’s specs for this device, this is only about a fourth as fast as its theoretical top speed, mostly because there is another disk involved. But it is plenty fast enough for the nightly backup that the computer does while I sleep.Further, and contrary to some of the poor reviews I have read, the USB-C connection is not loose, and the device does not get even slightly hot. Cool as a cuke, even after receiving a 350 GiB file.It’s still not as good as the earlier PNY Elite 1TB because it is larger. It’s both wider and longer. I wish it weren’t. It’s not a lot larger, but enough to make it less comfortable to carry around in a pocket. The original, smaller PNY Elite is handier to carry. But I’m not downrating this device, because I knew that when I bought it. I’m also not buying any more though – both Vansuny and SSK make smaller/slimmer 1TB devices.PNY: I wish you would re-introduce the original PNY Elite 1TB device (V3?) at the price of the Elite V2, but perhaps with a USB-C connector. I’d buy a few of those!

Fast out of the box
Fast as advertised. If you want to get full speeds from this you need to hook it to a 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 port. Running this drive or any other fast USB SSD on older USB 3.1 or earlier ports will yield slower speeds.It can get up to 70C on temperature with large copies but I did not notice any thermal throttling. Besides, alot of PCIE5 desktop nvme drives can hit 60-70C with no issues.Also you need to pair high quality USB 4 cables with these fast drives. Some of these cheap cables on Amazon and other places claim to be USB 4, Thunderbolt, etc and are not. A cheaper cable will show these drives performing much worse. The cable that comes with this drive does support the full speed of this drive but it is only about 1′ long.

Cool drive, BUT…
Very nicely packed with 2 usb-c cables, compact and really sturdy looking.Fast performance, easy to setup.The Online Registration wanted an unbelievable amount of personal info including shue-size, fingerprints and dental records.Not worth it for the price – IF it dies, I’ll just get another one.PS – Don’t fall for the “free” copy of Acronis Backup – only works on your PNY drive.

Works perfectly. Would buy again.
I’ve been using this as the main recording medium on a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K. Works flawlessly. (Be sure to use the included cable or a similar USB cable specifically designed for high bandwidth.)Would definitely buy this again.

Good product. No problems reformatting, encrypting or using. Sometimes gets a bit hot when in substantial use. All PNY products I’ve used have had no serious problems.

TenÃÂa fichados varios SSD externos otras marcas, sobretodo los de una famosa marca que fabrica móviles, y tengo que decir que este está al nivel (incluso por encima) de algunos modelos top.Me dedico al audiovisual y si algo no tengo es espacio, en cada proyecto nuevo acumulo decenas de videos que pesan bastante. O lo que es lo mismo: necesitaba un SSD externo lo suficientemente rápido como para poder editar incluso desde él, sin tener que pasar los archivos al ordenador.En este puedo editar proyectos en Davinci y Premiere (1080p 4:2:2) desde el propio SSD, que no es poca cosa. Agiliza bastante el trabajo. Llevo tiempo con él y no me arrepiento de haberlo comprado.

Portable, easy to use, small.I use it to store photographs and old files rather than using computer storage.
