Save 34% on this fast Crucial gaming SSD upgrade while you can, now just $75.19

Too many games filling up your gaming PC? You can banish those storage worries today, thanks to this gaming SSD deal. This 1TB Crucial T500 gaming SSD is now just $75.19, netting you a huge 34% saving on its list price.

This Crucial drive delivers great performance without breaking the bank, making it one of the more budget-friendly upgrades you could pick up right now. It's only a little slower than the Samsung 990 Pro, which is the fastest PCIe 4.0 SSD drive on our best gaming SSD shortlist, but for $25 less than the Samsung drive's current Amazon price.

While this 1TB Crucial SSD might not reach the speeds that a PCIe 5.0 drive can muster, it's still a hugely impressive drive for its price. If you're stuck with a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot, you're going to want one of the fastest drives you can get in there.

This Crucial T500 will help to deliver that, with sequential read and write speeds of 7,300MB/s and 6,800MB/s apiece. You're going to need to pick up a PCIe 5.0 alternative, such as the new Crucial T710, if you expect anything significantly faster than that, and pay significantly more for the privilege.

While you can purchase the Crucial T500 with a heatsink, the version without it is on sale with the biggest discount today. Modern motherboards will typically come with a heatsink for your M.2 slot, so you shouldn't be at too much of a disadvantage here without it.

If 1TB isn't enough, you can go bigger. The 2TB drive is also at near record lows on Amazon, costing just $124.99, thanks to a huge 27% discount. 4TB and 500GB options are also available, but those drives aren't as competitively priced right now.

Whichever storage option you're going for, you can pick it up from Amazon right now for $75.19, while the discount lasts, using this link here. Amazon UK gamers can also pick up the same SSD for just £70.85 via this link instead.
