The Prime Day deals continue on day two with some excellent offers on gaming tech, like these three fantastic PS5 SSDs which have all been given nice discounts.

Our picks for the top three PS5 SSDs on the market are on sale right now for Prime Day. One of them is at its lowest price ever right now, even though the other two have inched up in price since hitting their historic lows yesterday. Even still, if you're keen on adding storage space to your PS5, now's a solid time to look around for a good Prime Day SSD deal, and we've got a few right here.

First and foremost, the Samsung 980 PRO beauty is more affordable than its ever been right now. The 1TB model is now down to an excellent $139.99 at Amazon (saving you $90), comfortably beating its previous low price by almost thirty dollars. This price essentially takes a premium model and drops it into the mid-range territory, and it's not even too far from the $100-for-1TB ratio. Incredible value.

Second up is the Mark Cerny-approved WD BLACK SN850 which can be yours, in it 1TB form, for just $149.99 right now (was $159.90). Yes, it was lower yesterday, but a $10 savings on such a solid PS5 SSD is nothing to sniff at.

If you're keeping your options open however, and can spend just a few more dollars and get our absolute favorite PS5 SSD, the Seagate FireCuda 530, for just $169.99 at Amazon right now (was $179.99). The price has gone up slightly from the too-hot-to-last $159 deal we saw yesterday, but it's literally the top SSD you can put in a PS5 (or PC), complete with its own great heatsink, so any discount at all makes this a good value.

All these drives offer speeds that easily exceed Sony's recommendations, and, at these low prices, all three are shoe-ins as some of the top Prime Day PS5 deals, period. It's deals like this that make the sales event worth it for PlayStation (and PC) players as picking up one of these can help you out in one fell swoop.

Save $46; lowest EVER price - Completing the set of the three top PS5 SSDs being discounted, this is by far the best and lowest price we've seen on the WD BLACK SN850 and is dangerously close to that $100-for-1TB ratio - definitely one of the best deals we've seen today.
