Score: 40/100
PNY Turbo Attache 3 512GB
Score: 58/100Rankings
The PNY 512GB Turbo Attaché 3 offers high capacity and decent read speeds in a capless sliding design, but its bulky plastic body and lack of encryption limit its suitability for security-focused or ultra-compact needs.
The Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3 128 GB offers solid read performance and a convenient sliding cap, but its write speeds and random performance are extremely low, making it best for occasional read-heavy tasks.
