PNY 512GB Turbo Attache 3 USB 3.2 Flash Drive 100MB/s, Silver (Pack of 1)

I have purchased the 5 pack of these USB's in the past, all 5 of them have worked flawlessly upon purchase and have been reliable little storage drives, and the design of the case feels well built, they certainly aren't going to break from a few (dozen) small drops. Now that i've returned to get more of them, it is a better deal to get the 128g versions, which is more than fine with me, as I cannot complain about having even more storage. They write fast enough, store plenty of data, withstand plenty of use, and are very reasonably priced for what you get, I know that in the future if I need more, this is where im looking first.

PNY are a very viable product. Have never experienced any issues.

These drives are slow. I'm only getting USB 2.0 Speeds (20-40MBps) tops. Update: Nevermind. It was a PC issue

This seems pretty good and cheap as dirt! I recall when USB Keys were about $50 for a 200mb one and had USB-1 performance to boot. How far we have come I thought a comparison with other devices might be helpful. Summary: This device has read performance comparable to a traditional "spinny" hard disk and write performance about half of that. It is much faster than any USB2 device and has speeds comparable to USB 3 hard drives. This is a good device and you should definitely consider this range if you use USB drives mainly to move files about which are too large to comfortable transport in the cloud. However, you will likely have bandwidth issues writing 4k video, etc. Playback should be fine, though I have not tested this. Details: → This device: Read 117.4mb/s Write: 43.39mb/s ← USB2 Key: Read: 21.60 Write: 8.07 (Sandisk Cruzer) USB3 Hard Disk: Read 112.0 Write: 109.7 (Seagate Expansion USB-3) SATA [Internal] HDD: 139.2 / 124.4 (An older WDC WD10 EZEX 1TB Drive. YMMV) Notes: Crystaldiskmark was used with the sequential multi-thread test setting. In my opinion, this most resembles how people use USB-3 devices. Mostly we copy relatively biggish files on and off of them and don't put them under tremendous load for random read/writes. Mostly, our PCs can thread IO operations, etc. If you plan to use this device to run Windows To Go, some other live-booting OS or to do some other weird thing please note that the results for the tougher random (4KiB Q32T1) test are: Read 6.942 and Write 1.392. This is actually quite decent. For comparison, my SATA HD performed much worse at read 0.823mb/s and Write 1.097 in that test and my USB-3 HD at 0.550 and 0.985. USB 3 devices in this comparison attached via a Fresno Logic USB3 chipset . This is a rock-solid USB-3 controller but my experience is that it is a little slower than the flaky but popular VIA/VLI chipset common on on-board motherboard controllers and cheap add-on cards. USB 2 device attached via the RealTek onboard USB-2 controller. This is a pretty iffy chipset and you might do better if you are less lazy than I. SATA is internal SATA-3 with AHCI. AMD Chipset. This is a pretty good SATA controller but not super deluxe, you might do better. The drive is an older 7500RPM model, you definitely can do better. Disclaimer: IANAL, and IANA Engineer. Your results will vary because even with an identical setup there are nondeterministic factors at play.

I purchased a couple USB memories, so I won't only review them, but compare them. Memory 1 is: SanDisk Ultra Fit 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive (SDCZ43-128G-G46) Memoriy 2 is: PNY Turbo 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive - P-FD128TBOP-GE Both are great 128GB USB 3.0 memories, but each one could fulfill different needs. At the end I'll list some specs of the hardware used. Performance: On a USB 2.0, PNY has the advantage. SanDisk's only outperforms PNY in random writting. But besides that, PNY is a clear winner. Specially on sequential writting. On a USB 3.0. I'd say it's a tie. SanDisk has better sequential reads and random writes. PNY has better sequential write and random read. I could say PNY wins by a slight margin due the difference in sequential write is considerable. On a USB 3.0 + Turbo, while SanDisk increase its performance by a good margin, PNY actually performs worse... Don't ask me why, since it should increase its performance, but the results don't lie. SanDisk increased it's overall performance by about 40%; which is a very good margin. And an increase of about 200% in sequential writing. PNY on the other hand, decreased an overall of 4%. Sequential writing was reduced almost 35%. Sequential reading was increased by only 8%. And again, SanDisk is a clear winner in sequential reading and random writing, while PNY in random reading and sequential writing. SanDisk only outperforms PNY in sequential writing with turbo activated. PNY is a winner in performance. However, SanDisk performs really well with Turbo. Aesthetic: SanDisk is a clear winner. It just doesn't feel like a cheap USB. On the other hand, PNY seems to be made with cheap plastic, and also not very well painted. The hole for the lanyard, might be a tie. SanDisk's is toot thin and PNY's feels clumsy. None arrive with a lanyard, though. The USB cover is not the greatest in either one. SanDisk might get lost, but PNY has more friction. Warranty: SanDisk wins hands down. It's 1 year vs 5 year. Price: I paid 19.99 for PNY's and 27.99 fo SanDisk's. There's only a small margin in pricing. justified or not? might deppend on you. My verdict: It depends on your application. If you plan on keeping it in the USB port, SanDisk wins. Otherwise, PNY has a better performance/price ratio. Also, I didn't make a section for it, but SanDisk runs hotter, but this is understandable since it's smaller. SanDisk has a way better warranty, however. I'm using SanDisk for a Wii U. The console has a USB 2.0, which is the bottleneck in the system, but I I'd rather that it's the port, not the memory. So far is working great. Loading times are only slightly better, but that's preferable than worse. So now I can free some space from its 32GB internal memory. I wish the system had the capability of storing partially in the internal memory and the external, so I could have a increase in performance (Like a Raid 0), but, that's too much asking. It's lower profile will also help so it doesn't get in the way. PNY will be used by my father to transport large files. So sequential writing will have a better benefit. Also, since it's bigger than SanDisk's, there's less chance of losing it. And since he won't be able to lose the cap, it's a big advantage. Bench hardware The USB 2.0 tests were made in a dv2125la laptop. T7600 Core Duo with 3GB of RAM. The USB 3.0 tests were made in a desktop PC. Intel i7-4770k, 32GB of RAM, Z87 plus MB and C70 case. Thanks for reading. L8er!

These slide open and closed and come in bulk packaging. The quality so far is great and I can't believe what a bargain these are. I made a multiboot OS drive out of one, a music storage drive for the car, a portable app drive out of the other and I'm saving the rest for future use. They also were delivered overnight so I was really happy with that.

Muito Bom ...Estou testando..

A one
