PNY might not be the first brand you think of when it comes to portable SSD solutions, considering how popular WD and Samsung are. But its EliteX-PRO lineup landed in our roundup of the best portable SSDs for a reason and the 2TB model is a now at a new Amazon all-time low. Originally $255, it dropped from $190 late last year into the $140 to $160 range in 2023 and you can now land one at $124.99 $119.99 shipped at Amazon. This is the best price we can find and the lowest total we have ever tracked on Amazon – it looks like it might sell out soon so don’t sleep on it if you’re interested. The 1TB model has also now dropped to the new $76.99 Amazon all-time low as well. This is an up to 1,600MB/s portable SSD coming in at $1 under the sale price on Samsung’s 1,050MB/s T7 Shield. The 3-year warranty it ships with is a nice touch much like the included USB-A and USB-C cables you’ll need to connect it. Head below for more details.
If you can make do with a 1TB model, the EliteX-PRO goes for $80. And another notable option there is the Samsung T7 that is now selling for $70 shipped on Amazon – this is one of the most popular options among 9to5Toys readers and makes for a notable solution despite not clocking in as fast as the PNY variant.
