Today, Amazon is offering a notable deal on the PNY EliteX-PRO 1TB USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Portable Solid-State Drive at $64.89 shipped. Regularly selling for closer to $80 over the last year or so, and sometimes as much as $92 or $100, this is model is sitting at the same price as the 500GB variant right now and the lowest we can find. Today’s deal comes within less than $5 of the lowest we have tracked, which was a very limited offer at $60 over Black Friday last year. PNY’s portable SSDs offer some good bang for your buck, landing in our previous roundup of the best portable SSDs for that very reason. Hit the jump for details on the specs and feature set.
The PNY EliteX-PRO has a few things going for it over many of the comparable models in its price range from the big brands. Firstly, it delivers speeds faster than your typical mainstream models at up to 1,500MB/s, compared to the standard 1,050MB/s we tend to see in the sub $80 category.
