Like summer itself, Amazon Prime Day sales are hot. Case in point: the Samsung 870 Evo, our current top pick for best SATA SSD. Right now, you can pick up this fantastic drive at rock-bottom prices, with the 500GB model costing just $30, and other capacities are also heavily discounted.
When it launched, the list price of the 870 Evo was more than double what you’ll pay today. Besides the 500GB model for just three Hamiltons, the 1TB model ($60), 2TB model ($100), and 4TB model ($170) are also at all-time lows. Thanks to declining demand for SSDs and oversupply, we’re enjoying absolutely incredible deals on the best performing ones.
Speaking of which, when our sister site PCWorld reviewed the 870 Evo, they called it the best performer in its class. Thanks to its fast read/write times, it has a 4.5 out of 5 star rating And an Editor’s Choice Award.
Rated for sequential read speeds of up to 560 megabytes per second and sequential write speeds of up to 530 MB/s, this drive lives up to its specifications both when handling small and large large files. There are no compromises with this player, as you would if you opted for a cheaper model, like the Samsung 870 QVO.
Whether you’re looking to finally replace a hard drive to speed up your old PC or just want to expand your storage, this is a great deal. Prime Day lasts until July 12, but deals may sell out before the event ends. Don’t wait to grab one of these drives if the Samsung 870 Evo isn’t to your liking.
