Amazon is now offering some notable price drops on the Kingston XS2000 Portable Solid-State Drive headlined by the 1TB model at $67.99 shipped. Originally $160, it started 2023 at $100 before dropping to $80 back in the spring. Today’s offer is just a few bucks over the price of the 500GB model, well below our $92 mention in May, and now delivering a new Amazon all-time low. The 2TB is also down at $140 shipped directly from Amazon right now, which comes within a few bucks of the all-time low. While we have seen lower-priced 1TB models this year, today’s deal is easily one of the best we have ever tracked for a portable SSD that can hit speeds up to 2,000MB/s. The XS2000 also features USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 support alongside USB-C connectivity in a pocket-sized form-factor that also ships with a protective rubber sleeve. More details below.
For further comparison, today’s lead deal is a couple bucks under the price of a 500GB Samsung T7 that runs at 1,050MB/s. But if you don’t mind dropping down to a 1,600MB/s model, yesterday’s price drop on CORSAIR’s EX100U 1TB Portable SSD is worth a closer look while it’s on sale for $60 shipped via Amazon, a new all-time low there.
Even faster than that you say? Scope out our hands-on review of the solid metal 2,800MB/s OWC Envoy PRO portable SSD. This is one of the best builds I have tested out, with solid and speedy performance in tow. But it will certainly cost you more than any of the models mentioned above.
