Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this drive because it was on sale for a good price. I have had issues with PNY drives in the past but decided to give this drive a chance. The first thing I noticed was speed issues right off the bat. The drive would start very fast, then drift off to crawling. From there it would be up and down during the transmission, speeding up and slowing down. I thought this was an issue with the computer I was using, but did it on several others with the same results. The other issues was it would just disappear or I would have to plug it in several times for computer to recognize it. I still use the drive to back up things, but it still runs slow. If speed is important, I would not recommend this drive.

Perfect flash memory and headset and cabel and nice

I bought this drive for video game back ups and was drawn in by the price and advertised as USB 3.0. TERRIBLE transfer speeds! Tried in different USB ports including USB 3.0 and 2.0. Made no difference. Transfer speeds caps out at 11MB/s. Took over 6 HOURS to transfer 200gb. My USB 2.0 Seagate Freeagent from 2004 tranfers 10x faster than this piece of garbage! On top of horrendous transfer speeds the protector that slides over the USB connector feels like its going to break every time you slide it back and forth. It feels more like a knockoff brand ordered from Wish. You shouldn't pay more than $10 for this drive based off of the poor all around quality you receive! This will be the last time I buy anything PNY!

The "slide" is a little difficult to work. Guess that is why it was on sale. Good bargain though.

Take time to get used to using it. May be a while before im comfortable with it

I have now purchased two of these. One works quite well, but the other (older) one now has more than a dozen files that I cannot retrieve.

I have had about 5 of these in the past 15 years or so and only one still works, most failed within the first month. I would never by another PNY memory product regardless of how cheap it sales for, it simply isn't worth the time to load data only to find out when you need it the USB isn't recognized. This has happened on several PC's so it is a PNY issue, not a PC issue.

It is difficult to move the protective case and I've purchased flash drives with the same memory for half the price.

Does the job but I was disappointed in the download speed and playback speed of this product.

does the job nothing spectacular, does not work for my PlayStation as I was told that it would

saving this item as a backup for future use Have not yet used it

It took longer than expected and I had additional issues that needed to be resolved.

gave it only 3 stars due to not being compatible for extra storage for the ps4. Better off buying a 1 TB drive storage

s l o w... so freaking slow. i had 21000 files on it and it took 10 minutes just to read the file listing.

PNY is not compatible with MAC if you format it, the process is very slow and still does not work

256GB PNY Elite Turbo Attache 4 - USB 3.2 Flash Drive: Transfer speeds are constantly fluctuating between 0B/s to 100MB/s and everything in between but mostly 0-74MB/s. The fluctuating is like watching a sound wave, consistently up and down. Transferring 90GB took about an hour. For USB 3.2 I expected much faster. I'm headed back to the store right now to exchange for a SanDisk - Ultra Fit 256GB USB 3.1 Flash Drive instead.

Speed of data transfer not faster. Feeling like USB 2.0 speed..Not 3.0

It took almost 24 hours to download and fill the 256GB drive. I was expecting a lot faster. Also, the cover wouldn't slide closed. It takes excessive force to slide it. A search discovered other have had problems.

The flash drive was a great item, but we have to return it. Your daughter could get it to work for the purpose we buy it.

Can be hard to plug in in if other type A's nearby as you can't keep the slide from moving.
