2TB SanDisk Ultra 3D SSD on Sale Now, But Act Fast

Looking to upgrade your computer with a solid-state drive? Amazon has the hookup today.

As part of a one-day sale on select memory and storage products, Amazon has marked down the highly rated SanDisk Ultra 3D SSD. The 2TB version is currently available for just $223.99 with free shipping. That's $64.41 or 22 percent off its regular price.

The SanDisk Ultra 3D SSD earned excellent marks in PCMag's review. We praised its "very good overall performance," reasonable price, and more. When we reviewed it in early September 2017, the 2TB drive was "only" $549. Its price has dropped significantly since then, and today's deal makes it even more affordable.

"For most users it's not just more than sufficient, it's doggone good," we wrote.

After installing this drive, you'll "immediately notice faster bootup, shutdown, and app response" and your computer will be able to "handle even large graphic files with ease," SanDisk says. The company also promises a "blazing fast gaming" experience.

Amazon has also discounted a number of other memory and storage products as part of the sale. Here's some of our other top picks:

SanDisk SSD PLUS 1TB Internal SSD for $99.99 ($25 off)
WD 10TB Elements Desktop Hard Drive for $159.99 ($70.01 off)
SanDisk Ultra 400GB microSDXC UHS-I card with Adapter for $62.30 ($31.70 off)

Check out the selection, but don't waste time mulling it over because these deals expire at the end of the day.

About Our Expert

Angela Moscaritolo

Managing Editor, Consumer Electronics

My Experience

I'm PCMag's managing editor for consumer electronics, overseeing an experienced team of analysts covering smart home, home entertainment, wearables, fitness and health tech, and various other product categories. I have been with PCMag for more than 10 years, and in that time have written more than 6,000 articles and reviews for the site. I previously served as an analyst focused on smart home and wearable devices, and before that I was a reporter covering consumer tech news. I'm also a yoga instructor, and have been actively teaching group and private classes for nearly a decade.

Prior to joining PCMag, I was a reporter for SC Magazine, focusing on hackers and computer security. I earned a BS in journalism from West Virginia University, and started my career writing for newspapers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

The Technology I Use

My little Florida beach bungalow is brimming with smart home tech. I have a smart speaker or display in every room, allowing me to control other connected devices by voice. The Nest Hub on my bedside table lets me set wake-up alarms, control my smart light bulbs, and set the temperature on my smart thermostat. I use the Amazon Echo Show 8 on my kitchen counter to browse recipes, reorder protein powder, check the weather, and watch the news while I do dishes.

Because I suffer from allergies, air purifiers are essential. My favorite model is the Dyson Purifier Cool TP07, which doubles as a fan and continuously sends indoor pollution data to its companion mobile app.

My pitbull Bradley sheds, so a good robot vacuum is a must. I currently use a premium Ecovacs Deebot that can both vacuum and mop, empty its own dustbin, and wash its own mop cloth.

For fitness, I like to mix up my routine with cycling, indoor rowing, running, and strength training in addition to yoga. I take classes on the Tonal 2 smart strength training machine, I row indoors on an Aviron machine, and track my beach runs with an Apple Watch while listening to music on my Apple AirPods Pro. On the weekends, I love riding e-bikes like the rugged, beach-friendly Aventon Aventure for fun and fitness.

My job involves a lot of virtual meetings, so a quality webcam, microphone, and ring light are important. I use the Jabra PanaCast 20 webcam, the Elgato Wave: 3 microphone, and a Yesker tripod ring light.

As for my preferred phone platform, I'm an iPhone person, but I've also extensively used Android for product testing.
