Joining this morning’s return to all-time low pricing on Samsung’s higher-end T9 model, Amazon is also now offering a solid deal on the PNY Pro Elite V2 500GB USB 3.2 Gen 2×1 USB-C Portable Solid-State Drive at $34.29 shipped. Regularly $53, this model fetched $50 for most of last year before finishing out 2023 at $40. Today’s deal marks the first time it has returned to its Amazon all-time low and the best we can find. While not an overly spec’d out solution, it is a more than capable option that runs at up to 1,100MB/s while delivering both USB-C and USB-A connectivity options within an aluminum housing. If you can make a 500GB option work for your needs, this one is worth consideration at a price like this – a slightly slower Samsung T7 500GB sells for $70. More details below.
All things considered, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better option at a lower price point. As of right now, the model featured above is at the lowest price we can find on any model from a trusted storage brand with speeds above 1,000MB/s.
