Gaming PCs and PS5 owners are going to absolutely love what Amazon has discounted today because it will allow them to install games with abnormally high space requirements in a breeze and fire up various programs at lightning speeds. Yes, we are talking about a 4TB SSD deal, and not just any deal, because this one supports the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 standard. In simpler terms, it can deliver upwards of 7,000MB/s bandwidth to deliver the best possible performance at an acceptable price.
The Silicon Power XS70 is one such 4TB SSD deal that is available for just $249.99 on Amazon after a 19 percent discount, and if you think it is an expensive offer, let us walk you through the specifications first. It comes with its own heatsink that is pre-installed, meaning that you can outfit it effortlessly in your PC or PS5. The screws at the front and back can be removed if you want to install it in your gaming or regular laptop, but make absolutely sure that the M.2 slot you are about to fit it in supports the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 protocol or else you will leave a ton of performance on the table.
Speaking of performance, the Silicon Power XS70 can reach sequential read speeds of 7,300MB/s, with sequential write speeds topping out at 6,800MB/s. However, solid-state drives operating at these speeds can reach their thermal limits very quickly, forcing them to throttle and lose out on their peak performance. Fortunately, the pre-installed heatsink allows the XS70 to run up to 40 degrees cooler, so it can maintain its temperature most of the time to deliver the optimum level of performance.
The company claims that the 4TB SSD has an endurance of 3,000TBW, or terabytes written. In other words, the drive will last you for years, but if you want additional assurance, that 5-year limited warranty should give you some peace. For under $250, this is one of the best high-speed solid-state drives that you can get at this time, so make sure you do not miss out.
