Big shopping events like Cyber Monday are a perfect time to bulk up your PC, console or NAS storage with some cheap hard drives or SSDs. Internal or external, it's all good, there are deals to be had on everything.
The best part is the number of low-cost storage drives you can lay your hands on. It's tempting to spring for a huge capacity SSD, but those are pricey, and do you really need it?
Here are the seven best deals under $90 you can still get before the end of Cyber Monday.
Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD | Save 20%
For mass storage purposes in a workstation or a gaming PC, this 2TB 7200 RPM HDD from Seagate is a great choice. Performance isn't too bad for an HDD and Seagate offers optional data recovery plans for additional peace of mind.
Toshiba Canvio Basics 1TB external HDD | Save 12%
Take your important files everywhere you go for less with this external HDD. With USB 3.0 on board, transfer speeds to and from your PC or laptop are good, and it's backward compatible with USB 2.0 as well without the need for power.
Seagate Ironwolf 4TB NAS HDD | Save $21
Getting a specialist NAS HDD is the best idea for your network-attached storage devices and you won't get a better value deal right now than these 4TB Ironwolf drives. Minimal noise and vibration and integrated health management software help these rise above the rest.
Crucial P2 500GB NVMe SSD | Save 25%
A 500GB NVMe SSD for this kind of money is crazy value and since it's also from Crucial you know you're getting performance and reliability. With speeds up to 2,400MB/s, this will inject some real speed into any PC and leave more of your money in your pocket.
Crucial X6 1TB portable SSD | Save $50
What's better than a good SSD? A good SSD you can take on the road with you, and that's what you're getting from the X6. Normally you'd pay over $100 for one of these, and it's good for it, with USB 3.2 and up to 540MB/s speeds. But who doesn't love a big discount?
Lexar NS100 128GB | Save 20%
If you just need a really affordable boot drive for a PC then this should do the job nicely. It's big enough to house Windows and your most-used applications at a price that's firmly in impulse territory. It may only be SATA speeds but it's a huge step up from a mechanical hard drive.
PNY 256GB USB 3.0 flash drive | Save 31%
A USB flash drive isn't necessarily good for permanent storage but it's still one of the most convenient ways to carry around files. Capacity has also gone way up, like this 256GB drive from PNY which is larger than some internal SSDs. And it's cheap right now, so it's worth grabbing.
When the clock strikes midnight and Cyber Monday draws to a close, the deals will be gone. They won't be leaving behind a glass slipper for you to find them again, so do the smart thing and make the most of the time you have left.
