WD has slashed £40 off this 1TB NVMe SSD, and it’s not even Black Friday yet

We’re still almost a full month out from the official start of the shopping season, yet the early Black Friday deals are already starting to roll in.

Western Digital has slashed almost a third off the price of its 1TB WD_Black SN750 NVMe SSD, which is now available for just £89.99 from the official store.

We rarely hand out perfect scores here on TechRadar, but this M.2 SSD earned a full five stars when it was reviewed back in 2019, predominantly for its rapid read/write speeds.

Best value SSD deal

1TB WD_Black SN750 NVMe SSD: ~~£132.99~~ £88.99 from Western Digital
This lightning fast M.2 SSD from WD is available for almost a third off. It might not be Black Friday just yet, but you’ll be hard pressed to find a better balance of affordability and performance, even on the big day itself.

Given computer components aren’t the easiest to come by these days as a result of both the ongoing chip shortage and supply chain disruptions, it could be a smart move to dive in before the shopping season begins if you’re looking to upgrade.

In any case, although WD is undoubtedly preparing a raft of deals for next month, the roughly 30% discount available here is competitive with the best Black Friday SSD deals we expect to see.

And while the SN750 is a couple of years old now, you’ll be lucky to find a faster SSD on the market for less, with sequential read and write speeds of up to 3,470MB/s and 3,000 MB/s, respectively. In general, both Western Digital and the WD_Black range are also well-regarded in the community, so you can be sure this is money well spent.
