Deal | 4 TB Crucial X8 portable SSD gets generous 54% discount on Amazon
With a 54% discount, the 4 TB Crucial X8 portable SSD can be acquired for a wallet-friendly US$219.99 via Amazon. However, those who are happy with less storage and a lower price tag can go for the 2 TB version, labeled CT2000X8SSD9 and currently available for US$114.99 instead of US$219.99, thanks to a 48% discount.
Advertised as a PC and Mac-compatible storage accessory, the Crucial X8 also works with Chromebooks, Linux laptops and desktops, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, as well as other devices that use USB-C 3.1 Gen2 and USB-A connectors. This portable SSD features a durable design that is guaranteed to withstand drops up to 7.5 feet, extreme temperatures, dust, shocks, and vibration. Sadly, there is no waterproofing, so any contact with liquids should be avoided.
A very popular product family on Amazon, the Crucial X8 lineup received no less than 10,292 user reviews so far. The result of these reviews is a 4.6/5 rating, with 80% 5/5 scores and 11% 4/5-star assessments.
