If you're looking to upgrade the internal storage of your laptop but don't want to pay for a whole new device, a portable SSD is worth considering for all of your storage needs. Whether you're trying to save every last photo or putting all your games in one place, an SSD can help you out. Fortunately, you can grab one from SK Hynix for a low price, thanks to early Amazon Prime Day deals. While this SSD is normally available for $135, this 1TB SK Hynix Beetle X31 drive is just $75 while this deal lasts.
The SK Hynix Beetle is a 1TB portable SSD with impressive speeds of up to 1,050 Mb/s. The portability is a huge factor as well, and it can work not just with PCs, but Macs, most laptops, and even the PS5 and Xbox Series X. It's also rated to withstand drops from up to 2 meters and comes with a protective case to help defend against dust and dirt -- ideal if you need to take this thing on the road.
