Get a 1TB Crucial MX500 SSD for its lowest price everNow down to £73
Now down to £73
Amazon UK have kicked off their Spring Sale today, and with it hundreds of deals on all kinds of PC gaming hardware, including a metric truck ton of SSD deals. I’ll be highlighting some more over the coming days, but I wanted to kick off with this deal on the excellent 1TB models ofCrucial’s MX500SSD, which has dropped from £90 to its lowest ever price of £73 today.

There’s also a very good deal on their wallet-friendly NVMe drive at the moment, too, the Crucial P2. I’m just in the middle of testing this successor toCrucial’s P1, and while its random write speeds aren’t quite as fast as WD’s Blue SN550, its random read speeds are quite a way out in front - 54MB/s versus the SN550’s 44MB/s. In fact, it’s pretty much on par with Samsung’s recently released980 SSD, which is pretty good going considering the P2’s 1TB model is currently an even more tantalising £71 at the moment.

Crucial P2 (500GB) - £44 from Amazon UK (down from £52)
Crucial P2 (250GB) - £35 from Amazon UK (down from £40)
The P2’s 500GB and 250GB size capacities are also worth considering if you’re after a slightly smaller NVMe drive, as these are cheaper than their WD Blue SN550 counterparts right now (which are currently going for£37and£53apiece). The 1TB Blue SN550, meanwhile, is a decent£88in Amazon’s Spring sale, but it has been cheaper in the past. The SN550 is still a great SSD, but right now the 1TB Crucial P2 is definitely a better deal.
