Portable SSDs are blazing fast but cumbersome to carry around… unless you have one that’s the size of SK Hynix’s tiniest external drive, which squeezes NVMe speeds into a USB thumb drive form.

And if you need this kind of convenience at a discount, you’re in luck—right now during Amazon Prime Day, you can grab the 1TB SK Hynix Tube T31 portable SSD for $100 (26% off).

In our review of the SK Hynix Tube T31, we gave it a 4.5-out-of-5-stars rating for its impressive speed in its compact form factor. Though bulkier than a true USB thumb drive, it still fits in your pocket.

I’ve been covering tech and tech deals for almost a decade, and I rarely see this blend of features, much less on sale so early after the product’s release. This drive is an absolute steal at this price.

Don’t need so much capacity? The 512GB version of the SK Hynix Tube T31 is also on sale, down to $55 (45% off).

To take advantage of Prime Day deals, you’ll need an Amazon Prime subscription—but if you don’t have one, a neat hack is to sign up for a 30-day free trial. That’ll allow you to snag these Prime member deals.

Once you sign up, you can check out deals in other categories through PCWorld’s best Prime Day deals roundups.
