Hot Deal: Blazing Fast 480GB SSD For Just $59.99 [Original Price: $200]

Storage is something that always follows a familiar cycle. New, larger, faster drives are released at huge prices and then as the time rolls on, they start to get cheaper and cheaper until anyone can afford the space and speed they need. That’s absolutely happening with SSD storage right now, and you can get a 480GB drive for less than $60.

The drive in question is the SanDisk SSD Plus, a 480GB drive that is SATA III compatible and offers speeds of up to 6Gb/s because of that. The drive itself is capable of speeds of up to 535MB/s/445MB/s, according to SanDisk, and because it’s an SSD it’s also robust. No amount of jolting this thing is going to cause any problems, making it perfect for use in things like notebook computers.

All that is great, but what’s even better is the price.
