Amazon is now offering the Crucial X8 2TB Portable Solid-State Drive for $189.99 shipped. Originally $330, it spent most of last year between $220 and $280 with a more typical price in the $220 range across 2022. Today’s deal is matching the Amazon all-time low and the best price we can find. For comparison’s sake, the similar in speed SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD sells for $240 shipped right now. The Crucial X8 can move data at up to 1,050MB/s across USB-C 3.1 Gen2 and USB-A connectors on Windows, Mac, iPad Pro, Chromebook, Android, Linux, PS4, and Xbox One. It is a notable EDC storage medium that can also carry your expanded console game library inside of its anodized aluminum core with extreme-temperature, shock, and vibration protections alongside a 7.5-foot drop proof design. More details below.
Drop down to the 1TB Crucial X8 to save even more. Still sitting within $5 of the Amazon all-time low at $105 shipped, this one delivers an essentially identical feature set outside of the stunted storage capacity. You’ll find the same speeds and damage protections alongside the USB-C 3.1 Gen2 and USB-A connection options.
On the internal SSD side of things, we are still tracking the best prices ever on some of the best models on the market.
