Overview
Fast USB signaling and high-grade flash give the PNY PRO Elite its high transfer speeds. A metal shell protects the drive, and it falls back to older USB versions at lower speed.
High read and write speeds in a pocket drive make it useful for creators moving footage. Older ports slow it down sharply.
Who it's for
Editors, photographers and gamers with modern USB ports get quick transfers of big files. People with older machines will not see the headline speed.
Pros and cons
- Very fast read and write
- Works on older ports
- Full speed needs Gen 2 port
- Connector type differs between title and specs
- Size not listed
Performance notes
Speed is set by the host port and the drive's controller, so a matching modern port unlocks the full figures. Write speed holds up on large files because of the components the listing describes.
