The AI boom has greatly driven up prices for PC components like SSDs, RAM, and graphics cards. But relief is in sight, as retailers like Best Buy and Amazon are offering some of the steepest discounts I've seen in months on popular storage options like Western Digital, Samsung, and SanDisk.

This Memorial Day, you can save hundreds (and sometimes thousands) on high-capacity SSDs to upgrade your PC, laptop, PS5, or Xbox Series X|S console. And to help you find the very best discounts on top-rated SSDs, I've put together a list of some of the steepest markdowns on offer. You can also check out our favorite Memorial Day deals on TVs, Apple products, laptops, phones, headphones, and outdoor gear -- but hurry, these offers may be ending soon.

This compact, high-capacity SSD is perfect for content creators, gamers, and professionals. With USB-C connectivity for read and write speeds up to 1,000MB/s. It also features plug-and-play compatibility with both Windows and macOS.
