Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Solid state os drive is the only drive that can send files to the flash drive at it's maximum write speed. It comes in exfat format, and 3 mb is used space already. I like to keep 2 backups of most of my files and this is perfect for my second copy.

This one's a keeper folks! Lifelong customer for sure, from here on out. They all make life convenient.

Speed without disabling cache, requiring manual eject if you do so, is about half advertised but also fine. Ambient temp is higher, but i'm leaning toward a port issue.

Cons

Read speed of 348mb/s is very close to the advertised of 400mb but the write speed is 0. The problem starts when creating a file structure (or copying one over) after few seconds of copying, it's speed dramatically drops to usb 2 transfer rate. It wou... Read More

Gb less is ridiculous. One gigabyte is 1. Will revert back to my old 256gb drive while waiting for the next practical 512gb to arrive.

This product is fatally flawed in its design. The question is - why manufacturer is cheating on us?

Quality

Id never really gone wrong using pny usb drives and the quality on this device did not disappoint

I got this usb after being satisfied with the 512 gig model

My work computer with an i710700 processor measured read and write speeds nearly twice as fast as the product listing

However the write speed was nearly the same as the read speed and much faster than the product listing indicated

Price

Getting this half off the original price was fantastic

Only con i can think of is the price dropped 15 shortly after purchase

Shipping

Is fast and way handier than a small hard drive like the pnys i already have

It is fast could get to 400mbs write rate

Packaging/appearance

By the time you read this and finish saying the words im typing out loud the data on this drive a complete 1tb was delivered to... Read More

Competitiveness

By far im loving my 1tb usb drive

I have bought several of these 256gb usb memory drives to store my files and media good way to save important files

For a while i bought cheap 1tb usb drives and got burned

I cut it off with a dremel tool
