October's Prime Day is over, but these SSD deals are still available

The latest Amazon Prime Day sale is over, but you can still score some decent savings on storage gear right now. If you're looking to add more space to a camera, tablet, or gaming console before Black Friday, we've rounded up the best discounts we found on internal and external SSDs, microSD cards, flash drives, and other storage gear that you can still post after the Amazon's October Prime Day.

Best Prime Day SSD Deals

• SK Hynix Platinum P41 (1TB) for $76 ($19 off MSRP): This matches the lowest price we've seen in a year for SK Hynix's speedy PCIe 4.0 internal SSD. It's a great option for PCs or PlayStation 5 – just note that it doesn't come with a heatsink.

• WD Black SN850X (2TB) for $143 ($47 off): If you want a drive with similar performance but need more capacity, this deal should fit the bill. The SN850X is the top PCIe 4.0 pick in our guide to the best SSDs. This discount isn't the lowest it's ever been, but it's about $10 to $15 below the going rate for the 2TB model in recent months. The 4TB Model is about $45 off at $264 as well, although we've seen that one cost a lot less in the past.

• Crucial P310 (2TB) for $177 ($88 off): The P310 is a small size SSD for more compact devices like the Steam Deck or ASUS ROG Ally. It uses cheaper QLC memory, not the higher-performing TLC, but reviews suggest it will still work well in something like the Deck. This is the lowest price we've seen for the 2TB variant.

• Crucial X9 Pro Portable SSD (1TB) for $85 ($10 off): The X9 Pro is the top pick in our guide to the best portable SSDs, combining reliable performance with a compact, rugged design. We've seen this 1TB model cost a lot less in previous sales, but it's been in the $90 to $100 range for most of last year. This discount marks the lowest price we've tracked since January.

• Kingston XS1000 Portable SSD (2TB) for $100 ($40 off): The diminutive Kingston XS1000 is the runner-up in our guide, and this deal knocks about $20 off the average 2TB drive's street price lately.

• Lexar SL500 Portable SSD (1TB) for $85 ($45 off): This is another USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 model, so most people can safely skip it for a cheaper USB 3.2 Gen 2 SSD or, if they need more performance, a faster USB4 drive. However, if the SL500 suits your setup, this discount will be about $5 to $10 less than the regular street price of the 1TB model.

Best Prime Day microSD card and other storage deals

Expired Prime Day Storage Deals

• Samsung 990 Pro with heatsink (4TB) for $266 ($214 discount): The Samsung 990 Pro is widely rated as one of the fastest PCIe 4.0 drives on the market. This variant comes with a heatsink, so it's PS5-ready from the start, although it's probably overkill for more casual tasks, and you can always save money by adding your own heatsink to a cheaper SSD. That said, if you don't want to worry about that and need a lot of space, this is an all-time low.

• Crucial T705 (2TB) for $228 ($172 off): Most people don't need to pay extra for an ultra-fast PCIe 5.0 drive like the T705, but if you have heavy performance needs and have a compatible motherboard, that's about $45 off the model's average rate 2TB.

• SK Hynix Beetle X31 Portable SSD (1TB) for $65 ($70 off): The similarly pocket-sized Beetle X31 should get the job done if you only need 1TB of space. This deal comes within a few dollars of the lowest price we've seen and takes about $25 off the unit's regular street price.

• Crucial X10 Pro Portable SSD (2TB) for $147 ($43 off): You need a device that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 to get the most out of it, but the X10 Pro is essentially a faster version of the X9 Pro above. Again, this discount isn't the lowest it's ever been, but the 2TB model has typically sold for around $190 in recent months.

• SanDisk microSDXC Card for Nintendo Switch (128GB, 2-pack) for $28 ($12 off): The SanDisk Switch brand microSD card is not the fastest we usebut it's perfectly adequate for most use cases and is a solid value for a two-pack.

• SanDisk Ultra microSD card (1.5TB) for $89 ($61 off): If you don't care that much about performance and just want a big space for as little money as possible, this deal should work. You'll have to deal with slower transfer speeds, but the discount shaves about $20 off the going rate for this 1.5TB card in recent months.

• WD Black C50 Xbox Expansion Card (1TB) for $121 ($37 off): It's a pain in the neck, but the only way to fully expand The storage of an Xbox Series X/S consists of using a proprietary expansion card, such as the C50. This deal isn't the lowest ever, but it's $10 to $20 cheaper than the typical street prices we've seen in recent months.
