Now, if 1TB of portable SSD storage is a bit overkill, there are ways to save. Swap out that SSD for a regular hard drive and you can get a 2TB model at 50% less than today’s lead deal. You’ll sacrifice size and speed here, but at the sake of double the storage for half the cost, one can easily manage.

For larger storage setups, you might want to consider a NAS. We currently have a selection of models on sale from $137 for your mass storage needs. Synology is a personal favorite of mine, offering an easy-to-use interface and fantastic support.
