Fast SSD storage that won’t break the bank
This is the one you want. I’ve had numerous PNY flash storage devices, and they’ve never failed me. Their storage is fast, and this device is no exception. Really fast. It can get fairly warm to the touch (not hot). Use as Time Machine backups for MacOS, and it works like a champ. PNY is very competitively priced, and they continue to earn my business.

Good Product for Storage or Backup
Purchased a PNY 250GB specifically for backup images on my new WIN 10 PC. Like it coming with 2 different cables for connectivity. Very portable size. Reasonable price. When plugged in, the PNY was recognized and showed in the proper places, device manager, file explorer. I started my backup utilizing Macrium Reflect from my PC SSD to the PNY SSD. 61GB filled on the PNY drive. This took 36 minutes. At start the transfer rate was 500MB/sec. After 5 minutes this graduated down to 275-325MB/sec. This slowed to 225MB/sec after 20 minutes to finish. The unit was warm to the touch but not hot at all. The PNY backup file showed properly after finish. No problems.Hopefully this unit will last for some time storing my backup images. If it holds up after several downloads I plan on purchasing another so I may rotate the two. Always giving me a backup available in case one unit fails.

Very Fast
Plugged directly into my box’s 3.1 gen 2 port, I get read speeds of 840 MB/s and write speeds of 768 MB/s using CrystalDiskMark. Plugged into a 3.1 gen 2 hub however I get similar read speeds however my write speeds drop to 739 MB/s. Clearly this SSD’s best performance happens when you don’t use a hub. It’s really small and a nice piece of tech and the speeds are pretty close to advertised.

Decent external SSD.
What I dislike comes first: 1) The USB C to C cable that came with the drive was faulty. I’m using it using the USB A to C cable that came with it as a result, but got it for the C to C capability. 2) The USB cables are short. That could be a plus if you’re using this on a laptop, but on a desktop you’ll either need a new cable or have the drive hanging in the air on the side of your case. 3) The drive gets really hot under normal use.The good: fast enough to use as my boot drive for a second OS install. Works.

PNY PRODUCTS ARE GREAT BUT MISSED THE BOAT BY NOT PROVIDING SOFTWARE
I like the PNY SSD product, but it is useless for me without backup software. Acronis provides mirroring software for PNY products if they are connected to the internet and can be accessed by Acronis. Users do not want computers and cell phones with personal information connected to the internet and especially if they can be accessed by software companies located in foreign countries. Users want hardware and software that will backup computers and cell phones to portable SSDs offline without being connected to the internet. WHY ISN’T PNY SMART ENOUGHT TO FIGURE THIS OUT? They could be the leader in offline image backup by providing a product that users want and need.

Perfect for my needs
I purchased the external drive to store files that I want access to but not have them using space on my MAC harddrfive. I am amazed at how fast the drive processes files. Also, the drive “ejects” from my MAC instantly when commanded to do so. I would definitely purchase another of the drives if/when I need one.

Solid state == small!
As someone who is accustomed to buying platter drives for computers, my mind is admittedly fixated on a very specific set of physical dimensions. This solid-state drive is roughly half the size of even my smallest external platter drive. It’s quite convenient to have a full terabyte of high-speed storage in such a small package, and it gives me peace of mind knowing that — since it’s solid state — something as minor as a bit of jostling isn’t going to send a read/write head scratching across the data surface, potentially eradicating all of my valuable data.A good buy, in my opinion.

After 2 years of use it just died.
Afte 2 years this ssd drive just died. I used for back up of documents plus I had portable apps installed. I have tried to recover the docs; used DMDE; but was not able to recover any docs. I did have the ssd partitioned for Win10 documents and Linux docs. Perhaps that may be part of the loss of data issue. The ssd does generate a lot of heat; it runs hot as soon as you plug in. I was worried that the heat might cause loss of data; but not sure what caused the ssd to die. I won’t be buying this brand of portable ssd again. I have had a Western Digital portable ssd for over 4 years and no problem at all. No heat issues at all on the WD portable ssd. I purchaseda Samsung portable ssd to replace this one and so far it works great. This PNY portable ssd may work for you; it did not work for me.

I bought this to hook up to my Mac and it does indeed achieve the speeds that it advertises.Just plug it in and it’s ready to go.It doesn’t run hot unless you are pushing it very hard but it never gets excessive.It is a nice compact size which will take up next to no room in a bag or case and because it is USB powered there are no power cables to lug around.All in all it is a great speedy little 1TB drive which leaves the Samsung T5 way behind.
