I bought two 4TB USB SSDs half price, they seem well built and were brand new. I think I did pretty well.

Broke my phone 2 days ago. Samsung S23 has a black Friday promotion on its official website, the 256gb model is cheaper priced than the 128gb model. I think it's a good deal. Buy things you really need, and you might save some money. But of course don't buy stuff you don't need just for the sake of discount.

Online? Because I've been looking for some good external data storage solutions today if you've got a link lol.

I'm also considering springing for a Synology NAS if I can find a good deal, but I've already dropped a lot on a laptop.

I got it from Amazon, but I'm not in USA so for some reason the discount seems much larger on my Amazon which is the complete opposite of how sales usually work here. It's the Samsung T7 Shield 4TB, it seems pretty nice.

Hope they weren’t WDs. Those aren’t even worth 1/10th their price.

They are Samsung T7 Shields, I have a couple 2TB variants of the T5 and they have held up very well.
