PNY Pro Elite V2 1TB USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 Type-C Portable Solid State Drive (SSD) – (PSD0CS2160-1TB-RB)

Use this for my Legion Go 2 as additional storage, works great, fast load times in game

Very good quality. Really helpful for more games

Purchase this as an external swap drive so that I could upgrade my internal drive without having to reload the operating system. It was fast and seemed dependable and I now plan to use it for regular backups.

Got this to play Steam games. Works great and 2tb is enough to hold several AAA games at the same time

Very nicely packed with 2 usb-c cables, compact and really sturdy looking. Fast performance, easy to setup. The Online Registration wanted an unbelievable amount of personal info including shue-size, fingerprints and dental records. Not worth it for the price - IF it dies, I'll just get another one. PS - Don't fall for the "free" copy of Acronis Backup - only works on your PNY drive.

Very useful

Works as described

I bought the PNY Pro Elite V2 1TB USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 Type-C Portable SSD on June 23, 2025, and it completely died today — less than 4 months later. There was no warning at all. At first, Windows could still eject it, even though it didn’t show up in Disk Management or AOMEI Partition Assistant, which meant the drive itself had failed. I took a screenshot as proof. I’ve attached that screenshot showing Windows Disk Management. You’ll notice the PNY drive is completely missing — no partitions, no recognition. Yet the eject menu still appears, confirming that Windows detects something is connected, even though the drive is totally non-functional. This phantom behavior strongly suggests the failure happened at the controller level, not just a corrupted partition. Not long after that, it got worse — it stopped ejecting altogether, and now the system doesn’t respond at all when it’s plugged in. It’s completely dead. I expected better reliability from a known brand like PNY. I could understand this from a cheap, no-name drive, but not from a trusted company. I took great care of it, only plugging it in when needed, so this sudden failure makes no sense. To make things worse, I’m starting cancer treatment isolation on October 22, and this was the drive I was setting up with my games and virtual machine projects to use for studying and keeping my mind occupied during treatment. I had recently deleted everything to start fresh, and now the drive itself is gone — making this experience even harder. Unless PNY replaces it under warranty, I have to call this drive a major disappointment. It’s heartbreaking to lose both my plans and my trust in a product I thought would last. Please advise on replacement options under warranty. I need a reliable solution as I begin treatment.

Good product. No problems reformatting, encrypting or using. Sometimes gets a bit hot when in substantial use. All PNY products I've used have had no serious problems.

received a damaged pny pro elite v2. yes its fast but the usb-c port isnt a good or a smooth one. can cause in future some loose in the ssd board or internal cracks.

Tenía fichados varios SSD externos otras marcas, sobretodo los de una famosa marca que fabrica móviles, y tengo que decir que este está al nivel (incluso por encima) de algunos modelos top. Me dedico al audiovisual y si algo no tengo es espacio, en cada proyecto nuevo acumulo decenas de videos que pesan bastante. O lo que es lo mismo: necesitaba un SSD externo lo suficientemente rápido como para poder editar incluso desde él, sin tener que pasar los archivos al ordenador. En este puedo editar proyectos en Davinci y Premiere (1080p 4:2:2) desde el propio SSD, que no es poca cosa. Agiliza bastante el trabajo. Llevo tiempo con él y no me arrepiento de haberlo comprado.

Portable, easy to use, small. I use it to store photographs and old files rather than using computer storage.

Colis parfaitement réceptionner. Encore un grand MERCI a toute l équipe d amazone. Bonne journée a toutes et a tous. Tchao.
