B&H is now offering the WD_BLACK 1TB SN850 Internal NVMe PCIe 4.0 Solid-State Drive with Heatsink for $149.99 shipped. Price appears at checkout. Regularly $270 on B&H, this is up to $90 off and the lowest price we can find. However, it typically sells for closer to $200 at Amazon where it is now fetching $170. Delivering built-in heatsink technology as well as up to 7,000MB/s transfer speeds, this is one of our favorite options for PlayStation 5 and PC gaming rigs. The Gen4 PCIe NVMe interface is a notable solution for modern motherboards alongside the M.2 form-factor as well. On Windows, it is also compatible with WD_BLACK Dashboard for customization options. More details below.
If you can make do with a 500GB internal storage capacity, take a look at the smaller SN850 model. This one sells for $110 and allows you to take advantage of the modern specs and up to 7,000MB/s transfer speeds for another $40 less than the 1TB option above.
While we are fans of the WD_BLACK SN850 lineup, CORSAIR’s new 7,100MB/s PS5 and PC SSDs are certainly worth a look, especially while they are on sale. Having recently just got a chance to go hands-on with the brand’s latest, they are among the fastest options on the market right now and are currently starting from $160 shipped on Amazon. Head over to our deal coverage for a closer look.
