$250/$200

Amazon offers the Samsung 860 QVO 2TB 2.5 Inch Internal Solid State Drive for $199.99 shipped. Also available for the same price at Best Buy and B&H. Normally selling for $250, today’s price drop saves you 20%, is $28 under the previous discount, and marks a new Amazon all-time low. Samsung’s SSD boasts up to 550MB/s sequential transfer speeds and utilizes V-NAND Flash Memory to offer 2TB of storage in a more affordable price point. Even though it is a more budget-conscious SSD, it features the same build quality as Samsung’s higher-end models. Rated 4.7/5 stars from 585 customers. More details below.

Update 11/4 @ 4:30pm: We have spotted the Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB PCIe NVMe M.2 Internal SSD for $99.99 shipped at Amazon. Also available at Adorama, B&H, Best Buy, and Newegg. That’s $20 off the going rate found at retailers like Walmart and beats the previous Amazon low we have tracked by $10. Learn all about this drive in our release coverage. Rated 4.8/5 stars.

When we first covered Samsung’s newer SSD, we weren’t initially sold on its budget-friendly promise. But at nearly 25% off the original price tag, this drive is a compelling option for those in need of large amounts of SSD storage.

Alternatively, Kingston’s $32 240GB A400 SSD is a more affordable option for giving your computer a boost. It touts around 450MB/s transfer speeds, but if the 100MB/s difference between the Samsung model isn’t a huge deal, then the cash savings will surely be a solid tradeoff. I’ve been rocking this drive in a Mac mini for over a year now and have been more than satisfied with its performance thus far.
