Deals: Crucial, WD internal NVMe, external SSDs selling at prices just too hard to ignore

If you have been following Neowin for the last couple of months or so, you may have noticed that solid-state drive (SSD) prices have dropped by a lot, and when we say a lot, we really mean it. Except for the latest PCIe Gen5 ones, which are also pretty rare nowadays anyway, most of the previous-gen NVMe SSDs, as well as external portable drives, have dropped in price. Hence, it is no surprise to see that this weekend we have some fantastic new deals on SSDs alongside the ones we already covered.
