Samsung's 8TB portable SSD gets a massive 45% price cut for Prime Day

Do you know what you need to get this Prime Day? The 8TB Samsung T5 EVO portable SSD that’s discounted by 45% right now, putting it at its very best price of $427.49. (Other capacities are also on sale.) Given how much space it offers, this could likely be the last portable storage drive you’ll ever need.

We reviewed the Samsung T5 EVO and loved it enough to give it a 4-out-of-5-stars rating. We found it to be wonderfully small, rugged, and fast. “Though not the swiftest of drives, the small and rugged Samsung T5 EVO compensates with up to 8TB of affordable capacity…you’ll the love the space it provides for your stuff.”

And that’s the gist of it — because 8TB of space is nothing to turn your nose up at. A regular user who’s storing a usual amount of photos, videos, games, and documents will take years to fill up its capacity. And paying just over $400 for this much storage is a real bargain, though you can also pick up other capacities at a big discount — the 4TB T5 EVO is on sale for $230, while the 2TB version is going for just $167 during Prime Day.

The T5 EVO is built extremely well and it will survive pretty much anything you throw its way. It comes with fall protection for up to 6 feet and shock resistance. “You’d have to run over this thing with a tank or incinerate it to kill it,” our expert reviewer jokes.

So take advantage of this huge discount and get the 8TB Samsung T5 EVO portable SSD for 45% off on Amazon while you still can.
