One of the best gaming system hard drives is available at the lowest price ever
A Prime Exclusive deal
For Prime members only, Amazon offers an incredible deal on the popular WD_BLACK 5TB P10 portable external hard drive, one of our favorites for the PS5. Like other Black products from Western Digital, its bold exterior is made of ridged, black metal for an awesome, distinctive look.
The exterior is rock-solid and withstands drops and bumps, so it’ll have no problem dealing with the pitfalls of everyday life. Beyond the design, you’ll find an NVMe drive that tops out at a mighty 140MB/s.
Not a Prime member? Well, the WD_BLACK 5TB P10 is still discounted, just not as much during the Prime Day deals.
