AMAZON Prime Day is now in full swing, and we spotted an incredible deal on a tech essential from a big-name brand.
Prime-subscribed shoppers have been rushing to buy the 2TB SanDisk Extreme Storage SSD for the discounted sum of £107: that's a huge 71% cheaper than usual.
- SanDisk 2TB Extreme Storage SSD, £107.99 (was £363.99) – buy from Amazon
The second Amazon Prime Day sale is underway and we've seen thousands upon thousands of products with their prices slashed – exclusively for Amazon Prime members.
We spotted this storage device on the retailer's best-selling external drives page.
This essential item from SanDisk – one of the biggest manufacturers on the storage drive market – has a marked RPP of £363.99.

That being said, we used an online price tracker and we've seen that it's been hovering around the £250 mark on Amazon for the past few months.
All the same, it's still a substantial discount on one of those items that we know loads of shoppers have had on their wishlists (we've all got computers clogged with files, right?), but struggle to justify buying at full price.
If you're one of them, Amazon Prime Day seems like a good opportunity to strike.
This external storage device from SanDisk is an SSD (solid state drive), which doesn't have the moving parts or whirring noises that you might associate with older, mechanical hard drives.

Smaller and lighter than HHD (hard disk drives), these are all about speed, convenience and portability – as that name probably suggests.
Wrapped up in a tough, ruggedised silicone shell, the Extreme Portable SSD comes with a guarantee of 3-metre drop protection, and is IP65-level water-resistant.
It's marketed with read speeds of 1050MB/s and write speeds of 1000MB/s. In an online review, one buyer describes these as 'simply mind-blowing… It's like having a turbo-charger for my data transferring'.
The 2-terabyte capacity (2,000 gigabytes) is some seriously ample storage for most shoppers, and it's all cocooned in a gadget that another shopper describes as 'sleek and robust,' adding: 'the loop makes it idea for a carabiner to attach to a bag.'
