Save over £100 on the WD Black SN850 1TB SSD at Amazon

A fantastic choice for PC or PS5.

There's been a lot of great game releases recently, especially on PC and PlayStation 5. With Total War: Warhammer 3 coming out on PC, and Horizon Forbidden West releasing on PS5, not to mention Elden Ring available on both, we gamers are spoiled for choice with what we can play right now.

That being said, new games means more space taken up on your PC or PS5, so you might be faced with the choice of deleting a game you already have installed or buying some more storage.

We can help make that choice a little easier.

If you decide to go down the internal storage route, one SSD you might like to consider is the WD_Black SN850 1TB NVMe Gaming SSD, with speeds up to 7000 mb/s. It's currently enjoying a big 42 per cent discount at Amazon, saving you £109.

The SN850 is a great SSD from one of the best manufacturers of computer storage, Western Digital. Its size and speed are more than enough to load and run all of the latest releases without any issue. The SSD also has a nice RGB strip that can be configured to any colour to match your current setup.

The SN850 can be used in a PS5 as well as a PC because it comes with a heatsink already attached to it. Digital Foundry has a detailed explainer about Sony's PS5 SSD requirements and answers to a lot of FAQs. You can also check out an article we have on Sony's support notes and how to add an SSD into your PS5.

There are lots of benefits when using the SN850. Because it's an M.2 SSD it just slots into your PC or Console's motherboard, so it won't take up any space or need annoying cables, and you won't have to replace it for a very long time so it can just sit there and you won't need to worry about it again.

SSD deals come thick and fast so we're always trying to keep on top of them, just like this awesome Crucial P5 Plus; which is reduced from £157 to £106.42 on Amazon (this one doesn't have a heatsink). If you want to keep up to date with more SSD deals, give the Jelly Deals Twitter account a follow where we let you know when we've spotted a good saving on storage, hardware, games, and more.
