"What are the different USB speeds?
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) specification stipulates five data transfer rates:
USB 1.0/Low-Speed: 1.5 Megabits per second (Mbps)
USB 1.1/Full-Speed: 12 Mbps.
USB 2.0/Hi-Speed: 480 Mbps.
USB 3.0/SuperSpeed: 5 Gbps.
USB 3.1/SuperSpeed: 10 Gbps."
With that 480 Mbps repeated in the listing and some reviews stating this drive was way slower than other USB 3.0 drives they have seems to indicated the listed speed is correct. Which means it is not or should not be labeled as a USB 3.2 Gen 1 drive. That's unfortunate. Would be nice to get one this size at around this price.

They're claiming 460MByte/s, or 3680Mbit/s, which would be USB3 speed.
