Deals on SD Cards

These Lexar SD cards are perfect for professional-style DSLR or mirrorless cameras that can handle full-size SD cards. They can handle up to 250 megabytes per second, which make them more than fast enough to handle even 4K video recording, if your camera is capable of it. You can even shave off an extra dollar if you buy two at a time. These frequently drop from $50 to $36, but this is an extra low price.

If your smartphone, tablet, or Nintendo Switch doesn’t have enough storage space for all your stuff, a roomy 1-terabyte MicroSD card could be the last one you need to buy for a while. This card has only been this cheap once before, and for a full terabyte of space, it’s worth it for the peace of mind that you’ll never need to delete Breath of the Wild again.

It never hurts to have a spare Micro SD card or three laying around. These PNY cards aren’t the fastest around—though at 100 megabytes per second, they’re still plenty fast for nearly everything you could throw at them—but a three pack of 64 GB cards for $20 is nothing to sneeze at.

Deals on SSD and USB Drives

The Crucial X6 is our favorite portable SSD for good reason: It’s lightweight, incredibly fast, and one of the most reasonably priced drives even on a normal day. Today, it’s even cheaper at a low of $142. If you’re in the market, there’s never been a better time to get our favorite external SDD.

USB drives might be so disposable that companies give them away for free, but getting one with ample space can be huge. That’s where this PNY 1-terabyte drive comes in. With more space than you’ll need for a long time to come, and a slot to put it on your keychain, this could be the first USB drive you’re afraid of losing. It’s been drifting down from $200 to $155 in recent months, but this is the lowest price we’ve seen.

Whether you’re buying USB drives for the whole office, or you just keep losing your own, getting new sticks can get expensive. Fortunately, this PNY pack will sell you 10 at a time for $28, or a little under three bucks a pop. 32 gigabytes each is plenty to give everyone on the team the space they need to share documents and presentations without breaking the bank.

Other Storage Deals

Few upgrades can speed up your computer quite as much as swapping to an SSD. If your motherboard supports PCIe NVMe Gen 3 drives, then this 2-terabyte drive from Crucial can give you a ton more storage space while delivering a boost to the load times for your favorite apps and games.

The storage for your NAS is where the real expense lives, but this drive from Toshiba makes it an easier pill to swallow. A single 14-terabyte drive will only use up one of your limited bays in a NAS, while still giving you tons of storage for (hopefully) years to come.
