Looking for a great deal on a new hard drive or SSD to use with your Mac? We are seeing some great deals on storage in the Amazon Prime Day sale (running until midnight tonight – July 17), so there’s no better time to pick up a deal on some new external storage for your Mac.
During Amazon Prime Day Prime subscribers can take advantage of savings. To take advantage of the deals you will need Amazon Prime (which costs $14.99/ £8.99/AUD$6.99 a month but can be canceled after 30 days). If you don’t already have a Prime membership, you can sign up for the free 30-day trial and still take advantage of the deals.
The drives picked here are all chosen by our editors, who have decades of experience with Apple devices. We’ve reviewed most of the drives we recommend and for the ones we didn’t, we referenced one of our companion sites such as PCWorld, as well as our prior knowledge of the company. In short, we won’t tell you to buy something that’s not an actual deal. The products below are all at or near all-time lows, and we’ve selected what we think is the best configuration for each product type. We know Apple is expensive, so we’ve chosen products at prices we would be willing to pay, so you can trust that our recommendations will steer you in the right direction—and save you big bucks.
