Samsung’s 980 Pro family is among the best PCIe 4.0 SSDs on the market. Amazon is currently selling the 500GB version of the SSD for a low $99.99 (33 percent discount). In addition, Prime members can apply a 5 percent coupon on the product page to knock another $5 off the price. If you need more storage, the 2TB version of the 980 Pro is available with a 27 percent discount, taking it to just $329.99. The Samsung 980 Pro can deliver read speeds of up to 7,000 MB/sec for lightning-fast game loading.
- Samsung 980 Pro 500GB PCIe NVMe Gen4 SSD $94.99 @ Amazon (after coupon)
- Samsung 980 Pro 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen4 SSD $313.49 @ Amazon
Several Crucial SSDs are discounted for Prime Day, so now’s your chance to strike while the iron is hot. The Crucial P5 1TB PCIe 3.0 SSD promises maximum read/write speeds of 3,400MB/sec and 3,000MB/sec, respectively. The SSD typically sells for $174.99, but a Prime Day-only discount takes it down to just $91.19. If additional storage is more important to you (at the expense of performance), the P2 2TB SSD is available at just $231.79, representing a 23 percent discount. Performance drops to 2,400MB/sec read and 2,000MB/sec write, which is still respectable for an SSD (although nowhere close to matching the fastest PCIe 4.0 storage on the market).
There is a slew of Western Digital SSDs currently on sale, ranging from low-end to high-end. If you’re seeking a value-driven SSD with plenty of storage capacity, look no further than the WD Blue M.2 SATA SSD, priced at $179.99 (a 53 percent discount). The WD_Black SN750 SSDs are available in 500GB, 1TB, and 2TB capacities at up to a 52 percent discount.
