Pick up Samsung’s ludicrously capacious 8TB SSD for £413 after a 40% discountBanish spinning rust, once and for all.
Banish spinning rust, once and for all.
So when I had the chance, I bought the biggest SSD I could afford, a 4TB model at the time, and copied literally every bit of data from the four or five 1TB or smaller hard drives that I’d bought over the years and stuck into my increasingly full PC tower. It was expensive, and it took ages to copy everything across, but as soon as I turned my computer on for the first time and I didn’t have to listen to the clicks and whirs of a mechanical drive, I was completely convinced I’d made the right call to ditch spinning rust.
So. So. There’s a deal on, of course, on a blooming massive SATA SSD, and I think there’s a good chance that at least one person is in a similar situation to me. This deal is for an8TBSSD, Samsung’s 870 Qvo. It’s 40% off, which reduces the price from a shocking £700 to a more reasonable - but still massive - £413.
Here’s the link.

I wouldn’t choose this as youronlydrive in your computer. But as a way to replace your HDDs with clean, sparkling, silent, rapid, perfect SSD storage? With enough capacity to store all your media, all your on-site backups, all your game installs,all your base? It’s absolutelyperfect. In fact, this 8TB model is cheaper than the 4TB drive I bought a few years back. Crazy stuff, but that’s technology for you I suppose.
Anyway, I must be getting to bed. Thanks for reading this ramble, and if you have any questions feel free to write them into that little white box at the bottom of the page. I’ll see them, thanks to that whole technology business. See you!
