The insanely popular WD_BLACK SN850X is back to find a way into your systems and PS5 to deliver that storage bump, but this time, you get to avail adequate savings from the purchase. That is correct, both the 4TB and 8TB versions of the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD have been discounted on Amazon, with the most affordable version without a heatsink listed for $279.99 on the online retailer.
The variant with the heatsink will set you back by less than $10, meaning that PS5 owners will not be wasting any precious time getting their hands on this solid-state drive. However, what if you wanted double the storage because you are limited to the number of M.2 slots in your motherboard, laptop or console? Well, you have luck on your side because the 8TB models have been discounted by up to 35 percent.
Now, the 8TB WD_BLACK SN850X without the heatsink does not feature any discount coupon because Amazon decided to introduce an immediate 34 percent price cut that reduces the price of the SSD to $579.45. Fortunately, the high-speed version that ships with the heatsink has dropped from $639.99 to just $599.99, making it one of the lowest prices of the year. The lowest we have seen the figure drop down to was $579.99, but that was during Amazon’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.
We are confident that many customers will not mind paying $20 extra because that means they will not just witness a massive storage bump, but the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 standard ensures that the WD_BLACK SN850X grants a huge performance boost to whatever system it is slotted into. Be mindful that these discounts are not perpetual, so it is in your best interest to upgrade as soon as possible.
