Luckily, there's a fix for that problem, and it's an SSD — either internal or external. These SSD storage expanders are maintaining a big presence in the days leading up to Black Friday 2024, with many of them sitting at deep discounts at the time of this writing.

Everyone needs fast storage and a solid state drive (SSD) provides just that. You can get internal SSDs for your laptop or PC to reduce boot up times, or you could pick a good external SSD for high-speed backups.

One of the fastest gaming SSDs is now also one of the best-value, as the Crucial T500 gets some big Black Friday discounts.
