1TB Gen 5/$140

We just spotted a deal at Samsung that gets you the brand’s latest 1TB 9100 PRO Gen 5 SSD for $139.99 shipped. This model first launched in March at $220, and today’s deal takes a significant chunk off that original price. It fell to $160 during last month’s Prime Day sale at Amazon, and it’s now going for $20 less, marking the lowest price we’ve tracked since its release. Head below for more details.
