Get a 4TB SSD for $399 this Prime Day — 9.7 cents per GB is as good as it gets thanks to the AI pricing crisis

Pickings are slim for SSD discounts this Prime Day, and AI component shortages have sent prices through the roof. To that end, the best 4TB SSD deal you can buy right now is this $120 saving on Team Group's T-Force G50 M.2 drive, now $399.

Check out this deal on Newegg

This is the cheapest 4TB SSD on the market. Currently, the list pricing at Newegg is $519, which has been reduced to $449, a $70 saving. If you use code FTTF462 at checkout, you'll save a further $50, bringing the price to $399, just $50 more than the 2TB version.

This is a Gen 4, rather than Gen 5 SSD. That means you can expect sequential read and write speeds of up to 5,000 Mbps and 4,500 Mbps, respectively. While that's not the blistering speed of the Samsung 990 Pro, that drive is going to set you back decidedly more in the current economy, if you can even find it.

Even Team Group's own alternative Gen 5 is $549. The T-Force G50 comes with a patented graphene heat-sink to keep things cool and make installation simpler, and the controller in this drive is from InnoGrit.

As mentioned, $399 is the best you can expect to pay for a 4TB SSD right now, working out at around 9.7 cents per GB. That's decidedly more than you might have expected to pay last year, but prices are only moving in one direction. Silicon Motion recently told Tom's Hardware that the retail SSD market has all but disappeared, meaning this could be your last chance to buy a drive at these prices.
