Amazon is now offering the SanDisk Professional 4TB G-DRIVE PRO Desktop Hard Drive for $239.99 shipped. Regularly $320 and currently on sale for $300 directly from Western Digital and B&H, today’s deal delivers $80 in savings and the lowest we can find. While matched at Best Buy, you’re now looking at a new Amazon all-time low as well. It’s not a solid-state solution, but it’s also far less pricey than a comparable Thunderbolt-equipped SSD – the SanDisk 1TB PRO-G40 we just reviewed is at $280, for comparison’s sake. The G-DRIVE PRO features dual Thunderbolt 3 (20Gb/s) ports as well as a single USB-C (5Gb/s) option with an “enterprise-class 7200RPM Ultrastar drive inside” and a notable 5-year warranty with purchase as well. Head below for additional details.
Now just keep in mind, you’re paying a premium for the metal enclosure, SanDisk G-Drive namesake, and Thunderbolt tech. If a more basic USB 4TB external drive will do the trick, check out this Seagate portable instead. At $100 shipped, it will save you an additional $140 and delivers the same storage capacity.
