Amazon's PS5 SSD deals are currently offering up to $72 off some stellar NVMe Gen 4.0 drives. 

The Gigabyte Aorus 1TB NVMe SSD has returned to the lowest price that we can find, $139.99 (was $200). That's $60 off. This is a rate that we previously saw briefly in December, with the drive normally hanging around the $182 mark, so you're making an extra $42 saving here. This PS5 SSD deal is significant for the price because the Gigabyte Aorus 1TB Gen 4.0 SSD comes with its own full-body copper heat spreader, eliminating the need to go DIY at an extra rate. 

Also of note is the PNY XLR8 NVMe 1TB SSD, which has dropped to just $157.99 (down from $230). While it has been cheaper once in the past, by $7 back in December 2021, this is still a fantastic PS5 SSD deal worth your attention. It can reach sequential read and write speeds of 7,500 and 6,850 MB/s respectively, for performance rivaling that of the best PS5 SSDs. Keep in mind, however, you will need to invest in a compatible heatsink for use in the console.
