Ease your portable and console storage woes with this great value Steam Deck gaming SSD deal from Crucial. This Cyber Monday discount means you can jump all the way up to 2TB of internal storage for one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for a drive this size.
Whether you’re actually rocking a Steam Deck or have opted for one of the many alternative best handheld gaming PC options, this SSD is a great option for most. That’s because it not only delivers a large amount of speedy storage for a great price but its smaller 2230 form factor means the petite performance package will actually fit.
The drive in question is the Crucial P310, which is a PCIe 4 model, meaning that it sits right in the middle of the current performance options for SSDs. Older PCIe 3 drives are still decent options but top out at around 3,500MB/s read speeds while this PCIe 4 drive hits 7,100MB/s. PCIe 5 drives are faster still, hitting speeds over 10,000MB/s, but they run hot and offer minimal benefit even for high-end gaming PCs, let alone portable devices like a Steam Deck.
The drive is also rated to hit 1,000,000 random input/output operations a second, which is the measure of how quickly the drive can retrieve many tiny portions of data. It’s this incredibly fast random read speed that is the key to why SSDs feel so much faster than old hard drives.
With a capacity in this deal of 2TB, this drive has ample room even for the largest latest games, so whether you’re intent on trying Stalker 2 or Path of Exile, it’ll handily provide space for dozens of these 100GB+ downloads.
With an MSRP according to Amazon of $264.99, this drive is currently reduced in price by 47% to just $139.99. Even accounting for the fact that the drive has regularly been available for below that MSRP in recent months, this is still by far the lowest price this drive has ever been. It really is a fantastic deal.
