Amazon’s Prime Day is more of a Prime Week, but it is giving us even more opportunities to dig up fantastic deals, like a big discount on one of the best PS5 SSDs (that’ll also fit nicely in your PC).
The Samsung 990 Pro is seeing a 29% discount as part of the sale festivities, meaning you can scoop up a 2TB model for just $149.99, instead of the list price of $209.99.
This SSD Is Perfect for PS5 or PC
The Samsung 990 Pro with heatsink is one of the best SSD deals we’ve found this Prime Day, and while I already have one in my PS5 Pro, I’m certainly tempted to pick one up for my PC.
When it comes to PCIe 4 SSDs, the Samsung 990 Pro is a market leader in terms of speed, offering sequential speeds of 7,450MB/s read and 6,900MB/s write and random speeds of 1400K/1550K IOPS.
In short, it’s fast, and that means you can play PlayStation 5 games (plenty of which are on sale) directly off of it without doing that awkward shifting of games between non-SSD drives.
Not only is the 2TB model discounted, but you can pick up a great deal on the 4TB version with heatsink, too. It’s reduced from $384.99 to $275.49, a discount of 28%.
If you’re looking to save and still expand your storage options, the 1TB version is also available. It’s just $94.99 with the heatsink included, reduced from $94.99 (almost a third off).
