It’s a good time to buy SSDs and memory cards if you’ve been looking to expand the storage capacity of your devices. Samsung products are on sale for up to 57 percent off on Amazon, some of which are now listed for their all-time lowest prices on the website. The 512 GB Samsung microSDXC Pro Plus card that comes with a USB reader, for example, will set you back $48.

It’s a U3-rated card that has transfer speeds of up to 130MB/s, and Samsung recommends it for use not only with mobile devices, but also with the Nintendo Switch console.

The company also says that it designed the model to last and can withstand exposure to magnets, X-rays, water, extreme temperatures, and drops.

In case you’re looking to increase your computer’s storage capacity, Samsung’s 980 Pro Internal SSD is also on sale.

It can reach read speeds of up to 3,500MB/s and write speeds of up to 3400MB/s. Samsung says that the Pro SSD was specifically designed for hardcore gamers and tech-savvy users, as it has the ability to handle high-performance applications for gaming, graphics, and data analysis, among others. The model is also available in 1TB and 2TB if you need even more space.
