Alongside some hangover Black Friday deals down below, Amazon is offering some particularly notable prices on the Crucial X8 Portable Solid-State Drives. You’ll find the 1TB model selling for $47.99 and the 2TB variant at $79.99 shipped. These two drives started the year at $80 and as much as $140 before dropping into the $60 and $100 range over the last few months. Not only are they among the lowest prices we have tracked on any 1,050MB/s portable SSD over the last couple weeks for Thanksgiving, but they are also at Amazon all-time low pricing. The 1TB Samsung T7 model that runs at the same speed fell to, and is still at, $80 for the holidays. You’re looking at anodized aluminum unibody cores with 7.5-foot drop and extreme temperature protection wrapped around USB-C 3.1 Gen2 internals that are more than fast enough for most users. Head below for additional details and more hangover Thanksgiving Week portable SSD deals.
