Build it yourself with UGREEN’s 10Gb/s USB-C SSD enclosure at just $17 for Prime members (Reg. $25)

32% off/$17

As part of Amazon’s early Prime Day deals, the official UGREEN storefront is now offering Prime members its 10Gb/s USB-C SSD Enclosure for $16.99 shipped. You’d usually need to spend $25 for this model, leading to Prime members saving 32% while folks without a subscription will need to spend $23 right now and worry about shipping fees unless they spend over $35. While we have seen this enclosure go for slightly less, it wasn’t much better at between $15-$16 just a couple of times before, making this deal basically as good as it gets. There are loads of portable solid-state drives on the market, but if you want to build your own, it is a straightforward process that paves the way for upgradability and swapping drives, as needed. Once you’ve slid an NVMe drive inside, you’ll be able to plug this enclosure into a USB-A or Type-C port and achieve up to 10Gb/s speeds or 1.25GB/s when converting gigabits (Gb) to gigabytes (GB). Both USB-A and Type-C cables are included with your purchase. And if you need a way to manage micro/SD card storage, another UGREEN deal below is available at $8.50.

This rapidly tops off my iPhone 16 and adds extra power to my desk.

As promised, we’ve also spotted a Prime member offer on UGREEN’s micro/SD Card Reader for $8.69 Prime shipped after the on-page $3 off coupon has been clipped. Even without Prime, this is still a good deal at $10, but folks who are subscribed are looking at a substantial 33% discount and new all-time low. This card reader works with both microSD and full-size SD cards. It connects using USB-C and features a clean, white design that largely mirrors the look of what you’d find with many Apple dongles.

The storage-related deals are far from over with the SK Hynix Beetle X31 1TB portable SSD at just $75 right now. We discovered this markdown yesterday and it is still ready and waiting for you to cash in. And don’t forget that Lexar’s new 1TB portable SSD for iPhone 15 is $89, making it worth a look, as well.
