Best Prime Day SSD Deals
SSDs are at the heart of many modern devices, from PC handhelds like the Steam Deck and ROG Ally to full-size desktop PCs, laptops, and even the PlayStation 5. Here are the best Prime Day deals we’ve found for every region, with dedicated sections for high-end PCs, PC handhelds, older PCs without NVMe slots, and more.
Offers in the UK
So far, the best deals we’ve seen have been on high-end NVMe SSDs suitable for both PS5 and PC. The Corsair MP600 Pro LPX is on offer in a 2TB Heatsink model for a very reasonable £119 , and we’d recommend it for most people. If you need the absolute fastest drive on the market, you can get that with the Samsung 990 Pro, with massive 4TB and smaller 2TB Heatsink models on sale today.
