PNY is expanding its PRO Elite V3 USB flash drive lineup with three new USB-C models – PRO Elite V3 Type-C, Elite-X Fit Type-C USB 3.2, and Elite Type-C USB 3.2. Today’s announcement is headlined by the extreme-performance PRO Elite V3 model that delivers read and write speeds of up to 1,000MB/s and 800MB/s, respectively. The other two models top out at relatively lower speeds, though they’re more compact, are available in a lower 64GB capacity, and are also quite affordable with a 64GB 3-pack of the most compact model at just $27.99 shipped. Head below for more details and a closer look at the drives.
Tested: PNY’s featherweight 2,000MB/s Mac-ready portable SSD is much more robust and affordable than it should be
After we saw major price hikes across the portable SSD space in 2024, and finding myself in need of at least one more modestly-sized external storage solution, the PNY RP60 kept coming back up for a few reasons. But the most glaring details that had me leaning in its direction was the fact that it was a relatively new option from a relatively affordable storage brand – the RP60 is indeed one of the least pricey 1TB portable SSDs rated for speeds up to 2,000MB/s right now from a trusted brand. Head below for our hands-on impressions.
