In our throughput test, the reads peaked at 609.32MB/s at the 2MB block mark before dropping back to finish the test run at 600.26MB/s. Write performance turned out to be a bit erratic to say the least with a huge drop in transfer speed at the 128KB block, but the drive recovers very quickly to finish the test run at 707.25MB/s.
PNY's Pro Elite outperforms every other external USB-interface SSD on our charts for both reads and writes.
