When I’m looking to buy a computer, I don’t consider the storage capacity to be as important as I once did. These days, it’s pretty easy to find good deals on external storage, especially if you keep an eye out for price cuts. Amazon’s current sale on WD and SanDisk storage devices is a prime example.

Western Digital 18 TB External Hard Drive

I don’t know if any one person can fill up 18 terabytes of storage, but if you can, more power to you. If you’re up for the challenge, Amazon currently has a WD 18 TB Elements Desktop External Hard Drive on sale for $299.99 (originally $529.99) after a 43% discount. With USB 3.0, it offers fast data transfer and it is compatible with Windows and Mac—but for the latter, you’ll need to follow some on-screen instructions to reformat it. This WD hard drive was launched in 2020, and it’s at one of the lowest prices I’ve seen (but not the lowest) after looking at price tracking tools. If 18 TB seems like overkill, make sure to check out the other lower storage options below.

SanDisk 1.5 TB Ultra microSDXC Memory Card

For devices like Android smartphones, tablets, Chromebooks, Windows laptops, DSLR cameras, and even the Nintendo Switch, microSDXC memory cards can extend their memory space to fit more games, images, videos, photos, and files. Right now, you can get a 1.5TB SanDisk Ultra microSDXC Memory Card with an adapter for $109.99 (originally $149.99), which is the lowest price it has been.

SanDisk 256GB Ultra Luxe Flash Drive

For a more discrete and portable storage device than an external hard drive, consider a flash drive. Amazon has a SanDisk 256 GB flash drive for only $12.49 (originally $49.99) after a 75% discount. This flash drive can transfer up to 150 MB per second via USB 3.0.
