Amazon Prime Day is one of the best times of the year to upgrade your storage, whether it’s your desktop, laptop or new console.
The older, 2.5″ SATA SSDs are still a great choice if you’re rocking an older laptop or desktop, and is the most significant upgrade you could probably make to an older machine, especially to boot an OS like Windows. And with USB enclosures, you can also use these for other devices, including PlayStation and Xbox consoles. They’ll only be able to store PS5 and Xbox Series X|S games (but store and play PS4 and Xbox One titles), but they’re a heck of a lot faster than traditional spinning hard drives.
The Crucial MX500 remains the best 2.5″ SSD you can buy for both performance and value, and Amazon have small reductions across different storage capacities compared to the standard RRP. There are already discounts on some of the storage options ahead of Prime Day, which you can find below.
