Amazon is now offering the WD_BLACK 2TB SN850X NVMe Internal Gaming Solid-State Drive for $114.99 shipped. This model started the year on Amazon at between $170 and $190 before leveling out with a $150 regular price. Today’s deal is matching the best price we have tracked in months and comes in well below the heatsink-equipped model that has been hard to come by as of late. It also delivers a far better per TB value than the currently $85 1TB model. Clocking in at 7,300MB/s, this is a notable upgrade for your PC battlestation with Gen4 PCIe architecture and the M.2 2280 form-factor just about all systems require. WD says it features predictive loading, overhead balancing, and adaptive thermal management features “to juice up your gaming performance” as well. Get a closer look in our hands-on review and head below for more. 

A comparable and more affordable solution comes by way of the Crucial T500 2TB Gen4 NVMe M.2 Internal Gaming SSD. While it might not be as desirable for some folks as the WD_BLACK lineup, it is a newer release, comes in at a touch faster with 7,400MB/s transfer rates, and is currently listed with a lower $102 price tag on Amazon. 

Faster you say? We are also still tracking the $230 shipped Black Friday price on the speedy 12,400MB/s Gen5 model from Crucial alongside the ongoing discounts you’ll find below:
