Black Friday 2021 Storage Deals

When people think of Black Friday, they’re not often thinking about grabbing an awesome new external hard drive or a fantastic deal on an SD card. But, digital storage options are plentiful during the holiday shopping season, and the discounts are often steep.

No matter what kind of storage you need, there’s certainly a great deal for you. We’ve sifted through the deals to find some of the best for you.

Solid State Drives (SSDs)

Solid state drives, or SSDs, are one of the best storage methods around, but they’re also more expensive than hard drives. SSD prices have been dropping over the years, though, and the Black Friday sales on them are especially great.

Hard Disk Drives (HDDs)

If you need to backup your data, an external hard disk drive (HDD) is your best bet. You can get a lot of storage for cheap, especially during Black Friday, and partition it for any sort of data you want. During this time of the year, you can get multiple terabyte-sized HDDs at bargain prices. Don’t miss out!

If you’re wondering which drive to get, our best external HDD roundup can get you started.

Network-Attached Storage (NAS)

NAS, or network-attached storage devices, are really great for things like Plex, or to easily share data in a centralized network. Being a bit of a specialized piece of tech, there aren’t a lot of Black Friday deals on NASes.

However, the WD My Cloud Home Duo 12TB is $70 off at Best Buy, bringing the already affordable NAS down to just $480. If you’re interested in other NAS models, check out our best NAS buying guide.

Flash Drives and MicroSD Cards

Flash drives and SD cards aren’t the most expensive storage out there, and they’re often on sale. However, you can get even deeper discounts on these helpful, portable storage devices during Black Friday, so it’s a great time to take advantage and stock up!

When it comes to SD cards, you often want to aim for a MicroSD card, as opposed to a normal-sized one. MicroSD cards take to be compatible with more devices and also come with adapters to use as regular-sized SD cards to boot.
