Fix One Of Gaming's Big Headaches With Amazon's Daily Deal On Storage

4 years 1 month ago

One of Amazon's current Deals of the Day will help alleviate your storage woes. Whether you keep having to delete games and apps on your PS4, Xbox One, or Switch, or you simply need a backup storage device for your computer or electronics, the one-day-only sale on SanDisk and Western Digital memory and storage devices is filled with great deals on microSD and SD cards, external hard drives, and flash drives.

For Switch owners, the console's 32GB onboard storage can fill up extremely quickly. A high-capacity microSD card ensures that you'll probably never have to worry about storage again. Both SanDisk Ultra and SanDisk Extreme microSD cards are on sale. SanDisk Ultra 256GB cards are $28 (was $34.50), while the 400GB version is $44.79 (was $57.92). SanDisk Extreme 128GB cards are $19.59 (was $24.44). If you're buying a microSD specifically for your Switch, you simply need a UHS-1 card like the Ultra, so dropping twice as much cash on a SanDisk Extreme--the 400GB model is on sale for $64--for the same capacity card is overkill. The faster read and write speeds provided by the Extreme cards are more beneficial for other electronics like cameras.

Even if you have a 1TB hard drive, it's not particularly challenging to run out of room, especially if you get free games each month via PlayStation Plus and Xbox Live Gold. Western Digital's 5TB P10 Game Drive was designed specifically with gaming in mind. Normally $150, the P10 is discounted to $92 right now.
