NVMe SSD deals: WD_Black SN850, Samsung 980 PRO, Corsair MP600, and more

NVMe drives can be great addition to your gaming PC especially now with Microsoft's DirectStorage and its excellent benefits. Besides that, any modern system will greatly from such an upgrade. So if you're shopping around for some great deals, we have made a compilation of some of the best PCIe 4.0 drives available out there.

First up we have the Adata XPG Atom 50, which is one of the cheapest PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSDs out there and a decent budget Gen4 NVMe. The 1TB model is selling for $99 and the drive promises sequential read and write speeds of up to 5,000MB/s and 4,500MB/s respectively. The Atom 50 has a warranty of five years.
