Regularly up to $190 at Best Buy where it is now matching Amazon’s listing, this is up to $50 in savings and the lowest price we can find.

While you could score the popular SanDisk 1TB Extreme Portable SSD for slightly less at $134, with the same transfer speeds, there are even more affordable options out there. The Crucial X6 1TB Portable SSD drops the speed down to 540MB/s but also comes in at $99 shipped and makes for a solid lower-cost alternative if you’re not in a rush.
We also just had a chance to go hands-on with SanDisk’s latest 2TB Extreme PRO Portable for review. Easily one of the best options on the market, it can reach speeds of up to 2,000MB/s and, even more importantly for most users, features a metal frame that doubles as a heatsink for a more reliable experience in harsh conditions or during longer transfers.
