Over the last few months, we have typically been covering a lot of storage deals, both SSDs as well as hard disks (HDDs), and these include external as well as internal drives, as these parts have typically and frequently dropped in prices, making them easy recommendations for our readers.
Speaking of computer hardware, other components like memory, monitors, keyboards, mice, and the like, have also been discounted. You can find our coverage of those deals by browsing these articles.
Coming back to storage, you might be in a situation where you need a 4TB NVMe drive, perhaps because you want to play games and take advantage of technologies like Microsoft's DirectStorage. The Silicon Power UD90 is currently by far the best-value NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD available right now. Not only is it pretty fast, but its 4TB capacity for just $161 (buying link below) is pretty enticing and hard not to recommend to our readers. You can also consider the 2TB model though the 4TB one is the better relative purchase. We do however recommend getting a heatsink with this.
