I’m tracking Samsung’s storage prices in the run up to Black Friday, and a few early reductions have already appeared. Some of the models I rate highly have not moved much yet, but there is still time for deeper drops as the sales begin.

Samsung covers a wide spread of needs. The 870 EVO 1TB is a simple upgrade for older desktops and laptops that need faster boot times and reliable everyday use. The T7 Portable SSD 2TB offers quick transfers in a compact shell, making it useful for students and anyone who works across multiple devices.

Those who need faster internal storage will be looking at Samsung’s NVMe range. The 990 EVO Plus 2TB provides quick Gen4 performance at a reasonable price, and the 990 Pro 2TB is aimed at heavier gaming or creative work that benefits from higher speeds.

Recent updates

What's new? Black Friday is just under two weeks away now, and I've already bookmarked my favorite Samsung storage products in readiness for possible price cuts.

Black Friday Samsung storage deals: FAQs and buying advice

When does Black Friday and Cyber Monday start and end?

Officially, Black Friday 2025 begins on November 28 and wraps up at the end of Cyber Monday on December 1. You don’t necessarily need to wait until then to score a great deal. As you’ve probably noticed, many retailers are already discounting products, and that includes some reductions on Amazon. If you want to beat the rush and secure a deal before stock runs low, now’s the perfect time to start looking (if not necessarily buying).

What Samsung storage deal should I choose during Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

That depends on what you need it for. If you are a student, individual or small business, something like the Samsung T7 or a 1TB 870 EVO will give you quick access to documents, photos and everyday files without costing much.

Creators working with large media projects should look at faster Samsung NVMe options such as the 990 EVO Plus or 990 Pro, or a portable drive like the T9 for quick transfers and editing.

Professionals dealing with very large archives or heavy workloads may prefer higher capacity models such as the 4TB 9100 Pro or a larger portable SSD from the T series, as these offer room to grow and the speed needed for demanding tasks.

What features should I check when selecting the right Samsung storage deal?

When comparing Samsung storage deals, start with speed. Its NVMe SSDs are much faster than its SATA models, and its portable SSDs usually outpace older portable hard drives.

Capacity also matters, so pick a size that fits your files or projects. For portable options, check durability and the type of USB connection.

It is also worth noting warranty terms and any extra support Samsung includes.

How can I find the best Samsung storage deals during Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

1. Bookmark this page
I’ll keep updating this page as Samsung’s storage prices move, so you can quickly check whether a drive has dropped or if it is holding steady.

2. Know your needs before buying
The best advice I can give is to decide what you actually need before clicking “add to cart.” Are you looking for something portable, a fast everyday drive, or high capacity storage for heavier workloads? Matching the drive to what you actually need gives you real value instead of just the cheapest option. This is true of all storage products, not just Samsung ones.

3. Value over price
The cheapest option is not always the smartest, and that's why it pays to go for a known brand like Samsung. The South Korean giant has a wide range of reliable drives, and the seven products highlighted here made the list because they offer a strong mix of speed, capacity and dependability.
