Don't trust the cloud? This Cyber Monday SSD deal will keep your data as old-school as you are. I know that's quite a boomer question, but then again, is it?
I mean I've felt the frustrations of Google Drive and the amount of trauma I have around trying to use OneDrive is not worth talking about. So an external SSD can be essential, and that's where this deal on my personal favorite is so worthwhile.
Right now, the SanDisk Desk Drive 4TB model is just $259 at Amazon — that is a massive $120 saving, which drops it to the lowest ever price!
My experience with it has been stellar — implementing it into my setup and being able to refer back to my roughly 6 years of old files, YouTube captures and RAW photos in a snap has been impressive.
Speeds are seriously zippy with around 880 MB/s read and 900 MB/s write speeds when that USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface is under sustained pressure. Whether you're just using this to back up your files to jump back to every now again (like my meme vault) or running entire Final Cut Pro libraries off this thing, you won't feel a single stutter in the loading speeds.
And all of this power potential comes in at a tiny 3.9 x 3.9 x 1.6 inch size and 0.6-pound weight — making it a cinch to hide away in any setup (like I did under my desk.
SanDisk’s Desk Drive is a sleek, compact powerhouse, offering ample storage for even the most avid digital hoarders. Whether you’re a remote worker aiming to store more data offline or someone who values the peace of mind that comes with reliable backups, this drive is a smart, long-term investment built to stand the test of time.
