Amazon has now knocked the Samsung 2TB T7 Shield Portable Solid-State Drive down to $125.99 shipped. This model launched in 2022 at $290 and now fetches a regular price of $185 directly from Samsung where it is on sale for $130 – it has been hovering between $130 and $150 at Amazon over the past few weeks. While we did see a fleeting price drop on the black model at $117 and the blue variant on sale here today at $120, both offers came and went pretty quick and you’re looking at one of the lowest totals we have seen (it comes within $10 of the best ever). I was, and still am, a big fan of this one after going hands-on for review – the ridged rubber shell is a nice touch and it has performed flawlessly ever since. You’ll find up to 1,050MB/s transfer rates and USB 3.2 Gen2 support along with USB-C connectivity. Get a complete breakdown of what to expect right here and head below for more.
Another notable price drop we are tracking in the portable SSD space is on the WD 2TB My Passport model. This one is within about $5 of the all-time low at $115 shipped on Amazon to save you an additional $11 over the model featured above. And outside of the rubberized shell, delivers a nearly identical feature set and a sleek charcoal gray colorway you might prefer over the bright blue model above.
If you’re more concerned with your internal storage situation right now, the better-than-Prime Day price we are tracking on Samsung’s 7,450MB/s 990 PRO 2TB heatsink SSD is a must-see. This one is easily among the fastest options in the price range and it is now sitting at a new Amazon all-time low alongside the 1TB model at $100 shipped.
