Amazon is now offering the latest generation SanDisk 500GB Extreme Portable Solid-State Drive for $84.99 shipped. Also matched as part of Best Buy’s Deals of the Day. Regularly up to $140 at Best Buy, this one has sold for around $95 at Amazon as of late and is now at a new all-time low there. This is a particularly speedy portable SSD with up to up to 1050MB/s read and up to 1000MB/s write speeds. It is also quite robust with up to 2-meter drop protection and IP55 water- and dust resistance wrapped up in a “durable” silicon shell “that offers a premium feel and added protection to the drive’s exterior.” This model also includes a carabiner clip, USB-C/A connectivity, and ships with a 5-year limited manufacturer warranty. Rated 4+ stars from over 35,000 Amazon customers. More details below.
The Samsung T7 model is a solid alternative that runs nearly as fast for $80. But to save even more, take a look at the Seagate One Touch SSD 500GB External Solid-State Drive. This one sells for $75 shipped at Amazon where it carries 4+ star ratings from nearly 2,000 customers. While this one isn’t nearly as fast as today’s lead deal, it will easily be a great option for backups and photo libraries much the same otherwise.
We are also still tracking a notable offer on 10TB Seagate external hard drives as well as some internal SSD price drops including WD_BLACK SN850 NVMe models from $120. Just be sure to dive into our coverage of the upgraded Samsung 980 NVMe SSDs, the latest Synology options, and CORSAIR’s newest NVMe models.
