Amazon is now offering the WD_BLACK 1TB D30 Solid-State Game Drive for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC at $89.99 shipped. Regularly $150 at Best Buy where it is now matched for today only, this is up to 40% off and the lowest price we can find. While typically closer to $120 elsewhere, today’s deal is marking a new Amazon all-time low at $20 under our January mention. While not quite as fast as the latest edition P40 Game Drive at up to 900MB/s, it is also $30 less. You’ll also find the 2TB model at the best price we can find with a $149.99 shipped listing at Best Buy, down from the regularly up to $240. The WD_BLACK D30 delivers 1TB or 2TB capacities today within a purpose built game storage device and one that will work with multi-platform setups. You can play previous-generation PS4 and Xbox One titles right from the drive, while using it as a cold storage device for newer PS5 and Series X|S games, not to mention with your PC battlestation. Check out our hands-on review and head below for more details. 

If the gaming-focused solution above isn’t a must, there are some more general portable SSD solutions out there you can land at a lower price per TB. Something like the Crucial X8 1TB Portable SSD, for example, might not deliver the metal plating found above but it does start at a lower $80 price point and clocks in at a touch faster with an up to 1,050MB/s transfer rate.
