Customer Ratings & Reviews

Quick loading, able to hold a lot of my music(I am a DJ), easy trasfer of files and protected. This is my second purchase. The brand is top tier! I have referred this particular item to other DJs.

Amazing speeds. Great for everything. I’ve used it for moving so much data from my old pc and even moved files from my friends pc to help recover music files that were lost. This is very fast for the price.

Great device , love the memory size too. It works great with my laptop too

Bought the product as a backup but never used it till months after purchase. The flash drive was not detected in all PCs and Macs I plugged it in.

This little thing is absurdly fast – easily the quickest USB stick I’ve ever used.Plugged into a proper USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) port, real-world transfer speeds routinely hit 850–950 MB/s read and 700–800 MB/s write. Copying a 50 GB folder of mixed files (games, 4K video, VM images) took under a minute. A full 22 GB Windows 11 ISO wrote to the drive in about 28 seconds.To test the extreme: I made it a bootable Windows 11 installer using Rufus. The entire ~6 GB of installer files transferred from my PC to the PNY in literally 28 seconds. Booted off it on a new Ryzen build and the actual Windows installation finished in 8 minutes and 47 seconds from the first reboot to desktop – I’ve never seen anything close to that speed with a USB installer before. It’s borderline ridiculous.Build quality is solid (metal housing, no cheap plastic cap to lose), and it barely gets warm even under sustained writes. The sliding collar mechanism feels smooth and durable.If you need a pocket-sized drive that can actually keep up with modern SSDs for large file transfers, Windows installs, or even running portable apps, this is it. At ~$30–35 for 256 GB, the performance-per-dollar is unbeatable right now.TL;DR: Stupid fast, reliable, no nonsense. Buy it.

Bought this a few weeks ago and it’s been great! I’m a streamer/gamer so my pc is very important to me. I needed to update my bios on my pc and so I needed an external drive to plug into my motherboard and this one was perfect. I’ll also have some more future uses for it, but for now this is great!

It's awesome how far tech has come. Used to be in order to record 16 tracks of audio with my QSC mixer, I had to have a ac powered 7200 rpm 3.5" SATA drive in tow. Cumbersome! Now with these fast little 256gb SSD drives, I flawlessly record same 16 tracks and date I say...more reliably?! I haven't had a hiccup yet! I had hiccups with the big drives where tracks were totally misaligned and unusable. One show was a disaster!! The artist was counting in a good live recording, had a great show..the 7200 drive froze up and the recording got all screwed up. I've done 7 or do shows, no hiccups so far with the PNY drive. This is huge to me!! I'm very, very happy..so happy I bought another and will probably buy a few more just to have them on hand. Hope they don't jack up the price because of this review!! I've seen that happen!

File transfer is super fast and realiable. I am able to run and edit Unreal Engine directly from the flash drive. Well worth the money.

Feels heavy and not cheap. Works well and fast. Good purchase.

I specifically chose this because I knew based on the specs that it would be able to read/write data to and from the flashdrive very quickly. Need to transfer dozens of GB of data to/from another machine? Choose this. Although be sure to research about different formats or whatever for flashdrives.

Excellent flash drive. Reliable and easy to use and portable.

Works well, fast, large storage. Needed one to hold research data at a major university.

This is so convenient and compact! I love that it fits so easily in any bag I use!

Works fast,easy and has lots of storage for my pictures. It was exactly what I needed.

Does the job like a champ, better than most other products that are out there.

It is a very good usb works perfectly, I’ve had no issues with it so far .

Works great. No issues and lots of space for music.

Fast, I do not see it slow down on large file transfers like some others.

I purchased this memory to restore some data almost been lost when my MAC crashed. This Item Helped me during the restoration process because its large size memory and still works reliably through the whole process and functioning as I would expect.

My only concern is the physical durability of the latch mechanism.
