Searching for a cut-price SSD before Amazon Big Deal Days? This Silicon SSD is super-powerful and has had its price slashed

If you find yourself constantly running out of storage, this Silicon Power UD90 SSD could be the deal for you. The 1TB model is currently 32% down to $54 from $80, one of the best prices we’ve ever seen for this product – and that’s before this week’s Amazon Big Deal Days even start.

If, like me, you take far too many photos which you have an inexplicable reluctance to delete (despite most of them being pretty rubbish!) – then you probably find the ‘low disk space’ notifications pretty frustrating.

Luckily, a 1TB SSD like this can hold roughly 250,000 photos or 250 films (or, if you’re a bit more professional, 6.5 million document pages). It’s equivalent to about 1,300 physical filing cabinets, so this deal could be saving you a whole lot of space as well as money.

The Silicon Power UD90 SSD isn’t the most impressive in terms of performance, but does have a PCIe 4.0 interface, and the 1TB can reach 4.8/4.2 GBps for sequential read and write and 570K/600K IOPS for random read and write – and nearly double the bandwidth of the PCIe 3.0 for shorter download times.

The 1TB isn’t the only size on sale, either. Both the 2TB and the gigantic 4TB are currently at 11% off, with the 2TB at just $105 and the 4TB currently on sale for just $204.
