while itself may be a week away, many retailers have already started their official holiday sales. That means it’s a better time than ever to be in the market for new storage. If you have a computer, tablet, or any other device in need of a boost, we’ve rounded up the best Black Friday SSD and storage deals we can find below.
Before you dive in, keep in mind that storage prices have generally trended upward over the past year, so many of the discounts below aren’t all-time lows. Still, there are some, and each is the best price we’ve seen in at least a few months. We’ll update this post next week as prices change and more discounts appear.
-
: The Crucial X9 Pro is our pick offers reliable performance for most everyday tasks in a rugged and compact design. The 1TB version dropped to $60 last year, but this is the biggest discount we’ve seen in 2024. This is a similar situation. Reduced to $120. Also at , and .
-
: The Kingston XS1000 is second in our portable SSD guide. It works similarly to the X9 Pro, but it’s not waterproof, doesn’t come with a USB-C to USB-C cable, and gets a little toasty with prolonged use. Still a great value. This deal comes within a dollar of the 1TB model’s all-time low. Also at . If you need something wider, this is it about $18 below the regular street price of $102.
-
: The X10 Pro is actually a faster version of our favorite portable SSD, though you’ll only notice the difference if you have a device that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 speeds. This deal beats the previous low of a 1TB drive by a dollar. Also at , and .
-
: The ultra-compact Fit Plus is the thumb drive we recommend in our SSD buying guide. It’s not crazy fast, but it’ll do the job for basic work and is small enough to fit on a keychain. While not an all-time low, this modest discount drops the 256GB variant to its lowest price since January. Also at .
-
: We call the Canvas Go Plus a strong choice in our guide best microSD cards. Its consistent write speeds aren’t the best, so it’s not great for recording video or downloading a lot of media, but otherwise it’s close enough to our top pick. This is the lowest price we’ve seen for the 128GB version.
-
: The Evo Select is our favorite microSD card in the budget bracket. Its average write speed makes it less than ideal on camera, but for most people looking to add space to their Nintendo Switch or Fire tablet on the cheap, it should be of little complaint. We saw is selling the card for less, but that’s a new low for the “next generation” 256GB model, which adjusts sequential reads to a higher level. Samsung Pro Plus. Also at and .
-
: This isn’t an official pick in our guide, but the Lexar Professional 1066x is a perfectly serviceable card for most storage needs to consider when it’s on sale. This is a new low for the 1TB variant.
-
: The Ultra is slower than the cards we recommend in our buying guide, especially when it comes to write speeds, so you won’t want to stress it too much with large file transfers. But if you really don’t care about raw performance and want a big place for as little money as possible, it should be good enough. This deal comes within a few dollars of the 1.5TB model’s lowest price ever. Also at SanDisk and B&H.
-
: The P310 is a small size SSD that you can fit into compact devices like yours or Microsoft’s Surface laptops. It uses cheaper QLC memory rather than the faster and more durable TLC it still performs well as it is. This is a new low for the 1TB model. The It’s down to a best price of $140. Also at and .
-
: This is aggravating but the only way Maintaining the Xbox Series X/S is by using a special expansion card. There are currently only two of them available, but the C50 is one, and this discount drops the 1TB model to a new low. It usually sells for about $40 more in recent months. Is it still expensive compared to many SSDs of the same capacity? Of course. But any additional savings should be welcome. Also at . A it is also a few dollars above its all-time low of $68.
-
: Seagate is making another official memory expansion card for the Xbox Series X/S. This discount isn’t the best we’ve seen yet, and it’s for most of the month, but it’s still about $30-$50 below the typical street price of the 2TB model. There’s little performance difference between it and the C50, so the best just depends on how much space you need and which costs less.
