PNY Elite 960GB External SSD Review

Simon Crisp June 8, 2020 Featured Tech Reviews, Reviews, SSD Drives



The PNY Elite comes in a small stout box with an image of the drive on the front. Under the image to the left are the maximum claimed Sequential performance speeds (420MB/s for reads and writes) and the interface type, USB 3.1 Gen1. To the right is a box displaying the capacity of the drive.

The rear of the box has some small multi-lingual lists of some of the drive’s features and some general information regarding usage.


The Elite really is tiny, the aluminium enclosure measuring just 60 x 36 x 9mm and weighing in at a featherweight 50g.


Just to emphasise just how small the Elite drive is, we've compared it to an SD Card.

 

The Pro Elite uses a USB 3.1 Gen1 Micro-B connection.

The drive sits in a two-tiered plastic tray inside the box. The top layer holds the drive very snuggly while the bottom is home to the bundled USB 3.1 Micro-B to USB-A cable, which is a bit on the short side. Also bundled in with the drive is a serial number for Acronis True Image, which can be downloaded from the PNY website.
