TL;DR: Right now, save up to 40% off a variety of external hard drives, memory cards, and flash drives at Amazon as of June 30. That includes extra storage options compatible with Nintendo Switch or your PlayStation 4 and Xbox One


It’s easy for a lot of gamers to feel a bit overwhelmed by the continuous flood of gaming deals available every week. From PlayStation’s Mid-Year Deals to weekly Xbox discounts, it’s very likely your internal storage is at the breaking point. That’s why this Amazon sale on external storage options couldn’t have come at a better time. 

Right now, you can get up to 40% off various memory cards, external hard drives, and flash drives when you shop at Amazon. That includes popular storage options from big brands like SanDisk and WD. And you have plenty of options to pick from depending on which device needs a bit more space, including flash drives perfect for your iPhone or iPad.

But gamers are the big winner of this sale, so here are a few of the top options to consider when you’re close to maxing out your current storage:

Your Switch might be close to capacity at this point, and it’d be a shame to be short of space when Paper Mario: The Origami King arrives on July 17. Prevent that disaster with an officially licensed memory card that adds up to 128GB instantly. And the 100MB/second transfer rate makes sure your games load fast so you can play right away. 

When it comes to external storage for your PS4 or Xbox One, go big or go home. Or at least stay home and game because you’ll have plenty to get through on this giant 5TB hard drive. It’s compatible with your PS4, Xbox One, and any gaming PC and offers up to a 140MB/second transfer rate so you still enjoy peak gaming performance. 

If you don’t quite need that much space, then a 2TB hard drive for your PS4 should be just enough. It’s also easy to set up and install, which makes it a perfect quick upgrade if you want to hold on to your old PS4 before you go all out for the new PlayStation 5 later this year. 

Want a portable drive you can take anywhere that offers lightning-fast load speeds? The SanDisk Extreme is perfect for anyone who needs storage for their laptop but wants an external drive that’s resistant to water, dust, drops, and much more. And since it’s a solid-state drive, you get fast transfer speeds of up to 550MB/second.
