FULL STORY ======================================================================

Constantly running out of storage space on your laptop? Best Buy has a solution for you today, with a number of excellent Cyber Week discounts on a range of Samsung storage devices .

While several models are on sale, I highly recommend checking out the 4TB Samsung S9 Portable SSD on sale for $299 (was $439) . While it's a little pricey, this particular model is the current top pick on our best portable
SSD buyers' guide, so it comes with a high recommendation from us.

With 4TB of space, you'll be set for years with the Samsung S9 although that's not the main selling point. The S9 features a highly resilient
exterior that can withstand some serious punishment, as well as support for USB Gen 2x2. In layman's terms, that means extremely quick read and write speeds, although your computer or other device will also need to support that to achieve the best performance.

Either way, the S9 is a great device that should last more than a few good years down the line. Samsung T9 SSD deal at Best Buy

Here's another great choice for an external SSD at Best Buy today. The T7 Shield is a little older now, but it features a water-resistant design that's lacking on the more recent iteration. Of course, it's not quite as speedy for read and write speeds, but it's definitely a fine choice if you think you'll need an extremely sturdy SSD. View Deal

If your desktop is in need of serious storage, you can consider the heavily discounted Samsung 970 EVO at Best Buy. While SATA drives like this are usually overlooked in favor of speedier PCIe options, you're getting a ton of storage for the money here. Considering the 870 still boasts impressive write speeds, this is a fantastic and versatile option for any desktop setup. View Deal
