Combos, combos, combos, it’s all about combo deals to get the best prices on PC hardware in this post-AI-apocalypse market. But we’re finally seeing a sprinkling of sales on individual parts, which helps if you don’t need to buy multiple items to complete or update your PC, laptop, or even your PlayStation 5. Today, we found a great deal on a 2TB Western Digital Black SN7100 at Newegg. Priced as much as $500 on Newegg, they’re now offering a great deal on an incredible drive. If you act fast, you can snag this 2TB PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD for only $299 (same price at Amazon), making it much less painful than buying it when it’s not on sale.The WD Black SN7100 succeeds the SN770 using the same 2280 form factor and features the same SanDisk proprietary Polaris 3 controller and 218-layer TLC (BiCS8) flash. The SN7100 drive is DRAM-less, which could concern some users, as sustained performance on this type of drive can degrade during heavy, prolonged transfers. The good news is that the drive supports HMB (Host Memory Buffer), which uses a small portion of your system RAM as the drive’s cache, so you won’t notice unless your workflow consists of frequent large file transfers to or from the device.
