Amazon is now offering the Seagate 500GB FireCuda Gaming External Solid-State Drive for $84.46 shipped. Originally $190, it more typically carries a $130 regular price and is now at the best we can find. Today’s deal is also a new Amazon all-time low at $15 below our previous mention from back in February. There are certainly more affordable 500GB portable SSDs out there, like the popular SanDisk Extreme model or the Samsung T7 we featured this morning from $76, but the gaming-focused Seagate FireCuda line clocks in at a much faster 2,000MB/s to provide “high-speed, no-lag PC gaming…harnessing fierce NVMe SSD performance.” You’ll find support for USB 3.2 gen 2×2 gear, and aluminum enclosure, and customizable RGB LED lights that syncs with the Seagate FireCuda Gaming Dock. Head below for additional details.
As we mentioned above, you’re paying a slight premium on the FireCuda model above due to its built-in LED lighting, 2,000MB/s speeds, and focus on gaming rigs. But there are much more affordable options out there that come in nearly as fast, including the deals we are still tracking on the EliteX-PRO Portable SSDs. Deals currently start at $53 shipped here and deliver new Amazon all-time lows in the process.
