Amazon's PS5 SSD deals are offering up the WD Black SN850 1TB heatsink model at the lowest price we've ever seen. You can currently get your hands on the WD Black SN850 1TB heatsink drive for just $162.99 (was $280) - a saving of $117 off MSRP. This is the cheapest rate that we're able to verify on one of the best PS5 SSDs, meaning you can expand your console's storage for a competitive rate today. 

The WD Black SN850 is our number one pick for the best SSD for gaming, so we're comfortable recommending this model given the stellar discount. While not the historic lowest rate we've observed, you can also shave a fair few dollars off the WD Black SN850 2TB heatsink model as well today, as it's selling for $295.86 (was $550). While we've seen this capacity cheaper in the past, this is still just shy of 50% off the listing price so represents awesome value. 

We gave the model a glowing write-up in our WD Black SN850 review stating: "No question, the WD Black SN850 is up there with the very best PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSDs". What's more, a benefit of either of these WD Black SN850 models is that you do not require one of the best PS5 heatsinks, both the 1TB and 2TB Gen 4 drives come with their own proprietary dedicated cooling solution pre-attached.
