This early 4th of July PS5 deal is a sure-fire way to solve any storage concerns you have in one fell swoop - and do it for a lowest ever price.

Right now, you can grab the Crucial X8 2TB external PS5 SSD for $189.99 at Amazon (was $220). This equals the drive's lowest ever price that we've only ever seen three times since the product launched back in 2020, and so represents the best possible opportunity to pick it up and store all your PS5 games, and store and play your PS4 games. For full disclosure, the drive has hung around at this price for a bit, but it was only back in late March that it was nearly $200, and in February that it was at its full price.

Given the size and remaining relevance - and attraction, of course - of that latter library, a PS5 external hard drive is the perfect solution to having multiple games within arms reach, while also having a safe place to store the PS5 games you want to be able to play when you're ready to.
