Best SSDs: September 2020

A solid state drive is often the most important component for making a PC feel fast and responsive; any PC still using a mechanical hard drive as its primary storage is long overdue for an upgrade. The SSD market is broader than ever, with a wide range prices, performance and form factors.

Most of the SSD price changes we've noticed over the past month have been small price drops. The supply availability situation is also continuing to improve, with fewer models out of stock. Few important new SSDs have hit the market this month; the 8TB Samsung 870 QVO is now shipping, but the recently announced Samsung 980 PRO isn't due to ship until mid-October. There have been quite a few more product announcements in the past month or two, so we're expecting plenty of new SSD models to be hitting the shelves over the next two or three months. By the time the holiday sales begin, the high-end NVMe SSD market should look very different to what it was this summer.
