Amazon is now offering the Crucial X9 Pro for Mac 1TB Portable SSD down at $99.99 shipped. Regularly $140, this is $40 or 29% off and the lowest price we can find. Today’s deal comes within $10 of the lowest we have tracked on the made for Mac model that debuted on Amazon back in November. While you can still score Crucial’s 1TB X9 portable SSD on sale for $75 with the same speeds as the model featured here today, this one is pre-formatted for Time Machine and specifically optimized for “Mac, iPad, iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max, iMovie, Photos, and more.” It features an anodized aluminum build with a silver colorway alongside USB 3.2 Gen2 compatibility, USB-C connectivity, and IP55 water- and dust-resistant with a 2-meter drop protection and a rubberized soft-touch base.

Amazon has now brought back its holiday pricing on the Crucial X9 4TB Portable Solid-State Drive at $209.99 shipped.

Today’s deal marks a return to the holiday pricing to match the lowest we have tracked since release. For comparison sake, the comparable Samsung T7 Shield sells for $299 in the 4TB capacity right now.

It clocks in at 1,050MB/s and provides 7.5 feet of drop protection. Head below for more details.

Best portable SSDs of the year: Samsung, OWC, Crucial, WD, and more

We are now rounding up all of our favorite on-the-go storage options in our 2023 collection of the best portable SSDs. While we didn’t see a ton of big-time standout new releases in 2023, there have been some next-generation releases from major brands worth consideration. Something like the new Samsung T5 Evo with up to 8TB capacities is going to be far less universally appealing to most folks, but its new T9 and mainstay T7 series is quite the opposite, much like the new X9 and X10 Pro models from Crucial. This year has also seen some unfortunate controversy in the portable SSD space with some issues arising among the formerly quite popular SanDisk Extreme lineup – my units work just fine, but there have been a ton of failures reported across the interwebs – however there are plenty of reliable solutions out there and we are breaking down our favorite options right now in our 2023 collection of the best portable SSDs to close out the year. Check them out below.

Crucial T700 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD Review: Yes, this drive really does move data at 12,400MB/s

We first reported about PCIe 5.0 SSDs way back in January of 2022. Now, we’re finally starting to see some hit the market. While MSI, CORSAIR, and GIGABYTE have all already released their PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSDs, so far, they’ve been topping out at only around 10,000MB/s. Yes, we say “only” here because Crucial is taking things up a notch with the launch of its T700 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD. Crucial claims that this is the “world’s fastest” SSD, and while we haven’t tested the aforementioned drives, we have spent the past few weeks with the T700 and…the company’s claims are true. With transfer speeds hitting upward of 12,400MB/s, the Crucial T700 has the ability to move a 12GB file in under a second. Let that sink in for 12GB…I mean a second. Not sold yet? Head below for our full review where we compare the drive to other industry-leading SSDs on the market for a true benchmark of how fast it is.
