Those looking to super-size their storage while also equipping their system with a performance upgrade should look no further than the 8TB version of the WD_BLACK SN850X PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD. Previously, the high-capacity solid-state drive without the heatsink was available on Amazon Prime Day 2025 for $545, but there has been another price update where the exact same model is now listed for $530.
This figure is the absolute lowest we have spotted, pretty much hinting that you should get your hands on it immediately before the stock runs out or the sale ends. We also want to inform readers beforehand that this is the most affordable 8TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD that you can get anywhere at this time, and thanks to the increased bandwidth, your PS5 will greatly appreciate the significant speed boost.
Also, do not be worried that you will run into compatibility issues with your desktop or laptop motherboard because the WD_BLACK SN850X is also backwards compatible with the PCIe NVMe Gen 3 interface, with the major difference being that you will lose out on that performance bump you get with the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 protocol. This SSD features a standard form factor, and if you have plans to populate another M.2 slot down the road, getting 8TB of space on a single stick is what you should aim for.
Then again, not everyone will have use of this much capacity, and if you fit into this category, you can opt for the 4TB version, which has received a $10 discount coupon and is available for $269.99 without the heatsink and $279.99 with the passive cooler. We will remind readers that, to avail this deal, they need to be an Amazon Prime member, and if you are not, then this is your golden opportunity to do so.
