I review PS5 SSDs for a living and these are the best Prime Day deals I've seen

If you're in the market for a cheap PS5 SSD this Prime Day then you'll know it can be an overwhelming place if you don't know where to start. I have reviewed many of the best SSDs for PS5 and believe that now is the best time to consider a Gen 4 NVMe drive for your console because they are at historically low prices. 

For a start, it's now entirely possible to find a 2TB PS5 SSD under $100 which was previously unimaginable just mere months ago. Fast forward to the ongoing Prime Day PS5 SSD deals and we're graced with the cheapest-ever rates on both 1TB and 2TB models from the most established brands. This is due in part to the unveiling and adoption of Gen 5 SSDs which are now being used in high-end gaming PCs, making the PS5 storage expansion ideal halfway through 2023. 

The most competitive thing about these PS5 SSD deals is that there are a fair few hovering around the $100 / £100 mark in 2TB configurations, with 1TB falling nearer to the $60 / £60 mark as I predicted ahead of the sales. The best offers on display so far have to be the Samsung 980 Pro 2TB for only $99 (was $160) for its lowest-ever price. Equally as competitive is the excellent Adata XPG Gammix S70 Blade 2TB for just $109.99 (was $210) for just shy of 50% off. 

There are also savings on 1TB models worth your attention, too, as with the tremendously versatile Corsair MP600 LPX Pro for $67.99 (was $75) which are hard value propositions to argue against. At these rates, I absolutely recommend considering upping your budget to a 2TB variant if you can as you're more than doubling the available storage in your console for some of the best PS5 games available in the PS Plus Game Catalog or installing from discs.
