$740 buys SanDisk's 8TB Desk Drive SSD at Best Buy, a markdown of more than $1,000 from its usual price.
The deal stands out because high-capacity SSD prices have climbed in recent years amid crypto- and AI-driven demand, putting this offer closer to pre-AI pricing levels.
SanDisk's desktop drive pairs 8TB of storage with USB-C and up to 1,000MB/s read-write speeds, targeting backups, large game libraries, and photo or video files.
The drive also supports plug-and-play use on Windows and macOS, and includes backup and recovery software plus a 3-year warranty.
With the AI boom driving SSD prices sky-high, why is this 8TB drive suddenly so affordable?
Is this massive SanDisk discount a final chance for affordable storage before AI permanently inflates prices?
