While not the very first portable Thunderbolt 5 SSD out of the gate from one of our favorite brands – that nod goes to the OWC Envoy Ultra, the new LaCie is certainly one of the first new premium models sporting the same date transfer protocol as those ports on your new M4 Mac mini or M4 MacBook Pro (among other things).

After we saw major price hikes across the portable SSD space in 2024, and finding myself in need of at least one more modestly-sized external storage solution, the PNY RP60 kept coming back up for a few reasons. But the most glaring details that had me leaning in its direction was the fact that it was a relatively new option from a relatively affordable storage brand – the RP60 is indeed one of the least pricey 1TB portable SSDs rated for speeds up to 2,000MB/s right now from a trusted brand.
