Our take
This PNY Elite 480GB external SSD is a solid choice for anyone needing fast, portable storage. The 480GB capacity is practical for carrying documents, photos, or even a modest game library, while the read and write speeds of 430MB/s and 400 MB/s respectively make transferring large files a breeze. The USB 3.0 interface (listed as USB 3.1, but USB 3.0 is implied by transfer rate) ensures good compatibility across various devices including PC, Mac, PS4, and Xbox. The USB-powered and low noise features are excellent for on-the-go use, making it a quiet and convenient device. Just note the eSATA interface listed is contradictory to the USB specification in the title.
