<\/div>\nIn a nutshell:<\/strong> PNY has doubled the storage in its latest model of the Elite-X Fit series. The 512GB variant still keeps the nano receiver-like minuscule dimensions and is now available to buy for $100.<\/h5>\nGiven its meager performance figures of up to 200MB\/s read and 30MB\/s write speeds, PNY’s new 512GB Elite-X thumb drive would seem like a relic to many in 2020. It is, however, appealing to a niche of users who don’t mind sacrificing storage performance in exchange for capacity and convenience.<\/p>\n
The Elite-X Fit has a low profile design, and like most nano receivers, its Type-A connector makes up nearly the entire module, making it an ideal peripheral to plug in your PC\/laptop (and sometimes forget) for days on end.<\/p>\n
The connector also serves as a neat placeholder for specifying drive storage and its transfer standard, which in this case is USB 3.1 Gen 1. PNY touts backwards compatibility with USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices, a tad confusing at first given that the Elite-X Fit essentially uses the renamed USB 3.0 standard.<\/p>\n

Coming in at just 2.16 x 1.52 x 1.55 cm, the Elite-X Fit is even smaller than its main competitor, the 512 GB Ultra Fit<\/a> from SanDisk. In terms of performance, PNY’s offering trumps the Ultra Fit when comparing max reads (200MB\/s vs 130MB\/s), while its 30MB\/s writes are theoretically half of what the Ultra Fit can offer (~60MB\/s) with SanDisk’s claim of up to 15x faster write speeds than USB 2.0.<\/p>\nPNY’s 512GB Elite-X Fit is now on sale for $100 at the company’s official website<\/a>. It costs $20 more than the SanDisk Ultra Fit and only comes with a 1-year warranty as opposed to the 5-years offered by its competitor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nSee Campaign: <\/strong>https:\/\/redirect.viglink.com\/?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_159225728421111&key=552a35ca1eb1421626a0f973ac2a90af&libId=kbh0v93a01001u52000DAcqwyqwtv&loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.techspot.com%2Fnews%2F85623-pny-crams-512gb-micro-sized-elite-x-fit.html&v=1&out=https%3A%2F%2Fshop.westerndigital.com%2Fproducts%2Fusb-flash-drives%2Fsandisk-ultra-fit-usb-3-1%23SDCZ430-512G-A46&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.techspot.com%2F&title=PNY%20crams%20512GB%20into%20the%20micro-sized%20Elite-X%20Fit%20flash%20drive%20-%20TechSpot&txt=512%20GB%20Ultra%20Fit<\/a>
