Samsung is one of the most recognizable names in the SSD business as the company makes its own flash memory chips. The company has been bringing new SSD technology to the market for a long time. The Samsung 970 Evo Plus is a great SSD work machine and offers more than enough performance for everyday use. With 1TB of storage, you’ll have more than enough for today’s biggest games, as well as a decent library of movies and music. The M.2 form factor is now standard and widely supported by laptops and desktop PCs. This is a PCIe 4.0 model that is broadly compatible with current and previous generation hardware. Samsung also promises energy efficiency and reliability.

This entry-level SSD costs so little that you really no longer have an excuse not to have an SSD in your PC or laptop. 240 GB is more than enough storage space for your operating system, important software and all the files you need for your daily work. If you need more space, this drive is available in capacities up to 2TB and is still very reasonably priced. You can avoid the hassle of cables as the M.2 slots are placed directly on your motherboard. This could even be a great way to upgrade an older PC or laptop for very little money. The nominal speed is 2400 Mbit/s, which is sufficient performance for productivity and home use.

If you want absolute top performance, Samsung’s Pro SSDs are usually a good choice. Thanks to the NVMe PCIe 4.0 interface and a custom-made in-house controller chip, the SSD 980 Pro promises read and write speeds of up to 7000 Mbit/s. This is a good option for gamers, PC enthusiasts, and anyone with very heavy workloads like 3D media and video rendering. If 2TB is overkill, there’s also a 1TB option. What’s more, this SSD is even compatible with the PlayStation 5 if you want to expand your storage for modern games. The integrated heat spreader is flat, but should still keep your SSD cool. There is an additional 5 percent discount if you redeem a coupon before adding any of the options to your cart.

Sometimes you need to transfer lots of heavy files from one PC to another and just don’t want to wait for a slow external hard drive. A portable SSD can achieve much faster read and write speeds and is also much more resistant to physical damage than a spinning hard drive. SanDisk claims its latest portable SSD model is robust and able to deliver transfer speeds of up to 520Mbps thanks to its USB 3.2 Gen2 connector. It works with both USB Type-C and Type-A ports, and there’s a small elastic strap you can use to attach it to your bag as an extra precaution. You can travel with it or just use it for backups at home.

If you just need a lot of storage space at a reasonable price, traditional hard drives are still better than SSDs. The Toshiba Canvio Advance 4TB drive could be a solid solution for your growing backup needs and for storing all your precious memories. As photo and video sizes keep getting bigger thanks to better and better phone cameras, you can never have too much space. This hard drive features a textured exterior finish for style and protection. Its USB 3.0 port is sufficient for file transfers and you do not need an additional power source. Plus, it’s light enough to take with you on the go for all your backup needs. It is available in black, red, white and blue colors.

After upgrading your M.2 SSD, you may be wondering what to do with the old one. Instead of leaving it lying around, you can buy a conversion kit like the Orico Aluminum M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure to use it as a portable external drive. You benefit from fast USB 3.2 transfers and an integrated thermal pad for heat dissipation. The tool-less design means you’ll be up and running in seconds. This is also a great way to retrieve data from an old SSD without having to open up and disassemble the entire PC. This model is available in black, blue, pink and silver colors.
