    PNY's best thumb drive. I was disappointed that the actual usable space is 461 GB. That's a full 51 gigabytes less than written on the front. While I understand there is a conversion factor between decimal and binary conversion on a Windows machine, 512BG decimal should still work out to 477~GB which leaves about 15 missing GB. After reading the PNY website I learned it's because this drive employs a special SLC cache to make it operate faster. In addition to taking up space it also causes the drive to slow down significantly when that cache is filled up. Additionally, this drive came formatted in FAT32 which won't even allow you to store files larger than 4GB. I formatted it to exFAT to allow working with larger files and it is fine. If you are planning to use this drive to store anything larger than 4GB in size, you will have to format it to exFAT first.

    Quickly back up or transfer 512GB of data with the PRO Elite USB 3.0 Flash Drive from PNY Technologies. The PRO Elite is equipped with USB 3.0 technology, which enables it to offer read speeds up to 400 MB/s and write speeds up to 180 MB/s. When connected to a USB 3.0 port, this level of performance lets you transfer photos, videos, and other file types faster than previous USB technologies. In addition, the flash drive comes with a slide-out design that protects the USB connector when not in use and slides back when connected.

    I was looking for a durable flash drive and the this PNY fits that category. It is one of the few flash drives that is in a metal housing which accounts for its cost. I have previous owned PNY products and found them of high quality. Although it being metal it is stll light weight due to it sleek design. It will work as well as other devices of this type, but the draw is it stylish design and it is USB 3.0.
