This speedy 1TB Samsung SSD is only $70 ahead of Black Friday

Early Black Friday deals may actually be more enticing than what we’ll eventually see come the end of the month. Case in point, it’s hard to believe there’s going to be a better deal for the 1TB Samsung 990 EVO SSD than the one we’re seeing right now.

If you act fast, you can snag one for just $70 on Amazon, which is a hefty 53 percent off its normal $150 price. That’s an insanely good deal for one of the best internal SSDs we’ve tested so far.

When our expert reviewed the Samsung 990 EVO, he enjoyed it enough to give it a 4-star rating, appreciating the drive’s fast overall performance, the five-year warranty, and that it works both on PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0.

This high-performance internal SSD supports up to 5,000MB/s read speeds, meaning that it can load games and apps super fast and transfer files just as quickly. It’s also equipped with smart thermal control, spreading the heat across the whole drive and cooling things down even when you’re in the middle of an intensive task.

Why wait until Black Friday when you can grab this Samsung 990 EVO SSD for 53% off on Amazon? (And it’s not just the 1TB version that’s on sale right now — if you need more space, get the 2TB version for just $130, which is an almost-as-good 46 percent discount.)
