Overview
A 256GB USB 3.2 Gen 1 flash drive with read speeds up to 130MB/s and a sliding collar cap that protects the port, built for everyday file transfer between Type-A USB 3.2 or USB 3.0 computers. No specific model number is listed beyond the Attache X line.
PNY markets the 130MB/s read speed as up to 10 times faster than a standard USB 2.0 drive, a fair comparison point since it's also backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports at the older, slower speed. The sliding cap design means there's no separate cap to lose, a small but practical detail for a drive that lives in a pocket or bag. There is no customer review data available yet for this specific listing.
- 256GB capacity on USB 3.2 Gen 1
- Read speeds up to 130MB/s
- Sliding collar cap, no separate cap piece
- Backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports
Who it's for
Suits anyone who wants straightforward, capless USB storage for moving large files like video or photo libraries between machines. Less relevant for someone who needs a guaranteed write speed figure, since only read speed is specified here.
Pros and cons
- Sliding cap design means nothing separate to lose
- Backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports
- 256GB fits large photo, video, or document libraries
- No customer review data available yet for this specific listing
- Write speed is not specified, only read speed
Performance notes
Read speeds up to 130MB/s come from the USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, and the drive drops back to standard USB 2.0 speeds automatically when plugged into an older port, so it stays usable on either generation of hardware. The sliding collar cap covers the connector without a separate piece to misplace, which matters more than it sounds for a drive that gets carried daily. No write speed figure is listed, so treat transfer times for large outgoing files as unconfirmed.
