Amazon is offering the Samsung 970 EVO 500GB NVMe Solid-State Drive for $69 shipped. That’s $21 off the typical rate there and beats the lowest price we have tracked by $10. If you’ve been wanting to make your way towards NVMe storage, this deal may be for you. It offers read and write performance levels of up to 3,500MB/s and 2,500MB/s, taking boot up and app launch times to the next level. Samsung backs this solid-state drive with a 5-year warranty. Rated 4.9/5 stars. Check out our launch coverage to learn more.
If you’re willing to sacrifice speed, you can get quite a bit more storage for your money. One example includes Toshiba’s 2TB External Hard Drive at $60. This option lets you spend $9 less while also quadrupling your overall capacity.
Oh, and in case you missed it, the lead deal now has a faster, new sibling. The Samsung 980 PRO SSD lineup takes speeds to much greater heights with up to 7,000MB/s performance. Actual read and write rates will vary based on capacity with the fastest drives also being the largest and most expensive. Read our announcement coverage to learn more.
