We are now tracking a deal at Amazon that drops Lexar’s 4TB NM790 SSD down to $239.99 shipped. This is regularly a $265 drive that has fetched as much as $313 in recent months. Today’s deal knocks it $25 below its usual going rate, to land at one of the lowest prices we have tracked for it. With a 17% discount on its listed price, this 4TB SSD is now within $2 of 2024 low, and you can learn more about it below.
The NM790 is Lexar’s high-performance PCIe Gen 4 SSD that can deliver read and write speeds of up to 7,400MB/s and 6,500MB/s, respectively. It’s available in 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, and 8TB capacities, all of which come with the tried-and-tested Maxio MAP1602 controller and a 5-year warranty with MTBF reaching 1.5 million hours or up to 3,000TB written. The NM790 drive discounted today doesn’t come with a heatsink, but it is a PS5-ready unit that meets all the other requirements and can be installed in a PS5 console with a heatsink.
If you’re looking for alternatives, then Samsung has a bunch of its SSDs and other storage solutions at significantly discounted prices starting at just $13. Pretty much all portable and internal NVMe drives, including the 990 Pro Heatsink SSD on Samsung’s catalog are now available at a cheaper price for Christmas, so be sure to check them out and grab one for yourself or as a gift for your friends and family.
