Lexar 8TB NM790 SSD gets 15% Prime Day discount: Great for PS5 and PC gamers by Paul Hill
It’s the last day of Amazon’s Prime Day event (which is going on for four days) and if you’re still looking for something to buy, then how about this Lexar 8TB NM790 SSD which is currently available for $573.88, down 15% from $674.99. To get this lower price, you need to be a Prime member, you can get a trial here.
According to Lexar, this SSD is ideal for both PC and PS5 gamers. At 8TB, that’s a huge amount of storage and suitable for storing lots of games. As an SSD, it will operate very quickly and give faster boot times for your PC. It’s also a good choice for creators needing lots of space for editing large video files.
The NM790 boasts read speeds of up to 7000MB/s and write speeds of up to 6200MB/s. It’s compatible with PS5, desktops, and laptops, but doesn’t come with a heatsink so you’ll want to ensure you have good airflow for maximum performance. It also features Host Memory Buffer (HMB) 3.0 and Dynamic SLC Cache for smooth performance.
While you hopefully shouldn’t run into any problems with this SSD, if it fails for some reason that isn’t your fault, Lexar covers it with five years of warranty so you’d be able to follow up with the company to get the issue sorted.
This 8TB SSD could easily be overkill for many people, however, if you’re a gamer with lots of games to store, or a content creator that edits lots of large videos, it could make a lot of sense. If you are interested in purchasing it, act quickly as Prime Day sales will soon come to an end. Lexar 8TB NM790 SSD: $573.88 (Amazon US) / MSRP $674.99
