Beat the storage price hikes with my top 5 SSD deals — save on ultra-fast drives from Samsung, WD_Black, and Kingston with discounts up to $1043 in Amazon's Gaming Week sale

The WD_Black SN7100 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD offers up to 7,000MB/s / 6,700MB/s read/write speeds. The discount here is deep, offering a better price than buying separate 2TB drives.

Massive discount for this 4TB SSD deal from WD_Black. A perennial favorite of ours, it reaches up to 7,300 MB/s read speeds and up to 6,300 MB/s write speeds.

On the same page, the 2TB version is also discounted to $379 (was $851).

One of our top SSDs is currently discounted, with the Samsung 990 Evo Plus dropping $93 in price. It features read/write speeds of up to 7,250MB/s / 6,300MB/s respectively.

On the same page, the 4TB model is down to $662 (was $1000).

With read/write speeds of up to 7450MB/s / 6900MB/s, this is a fast internal drive that earned the full 5 stars in our review, where we called it "an absolutely stellar M.2 SSD for both professional users and gamers."

On the same page, the 4TB model is now $946 (was $1100).

Not the fastest SSD on the block from Kingston here, but it does have up to 6000 MB/s read/write speeds, and the 4TB capacity makes it a worthwhile investment if you need extra storage space. On the same page, the 500GB and 2TB versions are also on sale right now, too.

I use the Lexar Professional Go SSD and I love it. It's a great way to expand fast phone storage, and especially good for creators. Reads speeds are up to 1050MB/s and write speeds up to 1000MB/s. In our review, we awarded it 4.5 stars. Bonus points for being IP65 rated for extra durability.

Great deal here on a 256GB Lexar MicroSD card two-pack. Compatible with a range of mobile devices. Not ultra-fast, though, with read speeds of up to 205MB/s and write speeds of up to 150MB/s.

I always like dual drives, which feature a USB-A and a USB-C connector at either end. That means you can use it on laptops, PC, as well as iOS and Android phones and tablets. This Lexar drive has 256GB storage, with transfer speeds of up to 400MB/s.

This 1TB UHS-I card is suited to storing videos, photos, and audio files on phones and tablets, and games on Switch. It can reach up to 205MB/s read speeds and 140MB/s write speeds.
