Best Cyber Monday SSD deals 2023
NVMe, SATA and external SSDs going cheap this Cyber Monday
The best Cyber Monday SSD deals still resemble a Greatest Hits of Black Friday week’s storage bargains – surely a relief to the unfortunate souls who missed out when they were fresh. Fancy a cheap WD Black SN850X? Done. Surprise savings on the new Crucial T500, one of the most effective cutters of game load times on the market? Sure. And those are just a couple of the NVMe highlights, with plenty more SATA and external SSD deals hanging around until the sun sets on Cyber Monday as well.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: an SSD is a de facto necessity for any modern gaming PC. Games like Starfield and Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty are the starkest evidence for this, what with their tendency to stutter unplayably when installed on a hard disk drive, but really, SSDs are just massively faster in almost everything you could think to use a PC for. HDDs are cheaper per GB, but just 1TB is fine for a solely gaming-focused rig, and with these Cyber Monday deals you can get that much space – or more – at a bargain price.

All our top Cyber Monday SSD deal picks can be found below, sorted into NVMe/PCIe, SATA, and external drives. One last piece of advice before you start shopping: with NVMe SSDs, check whether your motherboard and CPU will definitely support your desired model, as older systems may accept a PCIe 3.0 drive but not a PCIe 4.0 one. You’ll probably be fine, as PCIe 4.0 support become widespread years ago, but it pays to be sure. Actually installing an SSD is a piece of cake, in any event.
