Replace all of your HDDs with this massive 8TB Samsung 870 Qvo SSDFast, silent, capacious.
Fast, silent, capacious.
Samsung’s 870 Qvo SSD isone of the best optionsfor high-capacity solid state storage, with a simple 2.5-inch form factor that doesn’t take up a valuable M.2 or PCIe slot and a fast-enough SATA connection. While performance is good, at up to 550MB/s for reads and a little less for writes, the real benefit here is having up to 8TB of silent, reliable and low latency storage.

Amazon - Get the Samsung 870 Qvo 8TB for £412 (RRP £452)
Now, don’t get me wrong - ~£415 is still a lot of money for a QLC drive, even one with an 8GB DRAM cache - but you are also getting ahugeamount of space that will take most people years and years to fill up.
Whether you want to keepallof your Steam library installed, host a Plex server with all your media or back up your smaller SSDs to a bigger drive, this 8TB model has you covered.
Most people I knew in uni back in 2011 with desktop PCs had at least one HDD in their machines for media or game storage, and a decade on many of these drives are still sitting around - either on a shelf somewhere or physically present in a computer. Replacing mechanical drives like these with an SSD alternative is honestly incredible, as after a (lengthy) transfer period you can unplug all of the mechanical drives and keep only SSDs in your machine.
In any case, if you want a big-ol' SSD for media storage purposes, the 870 Qvo is one I can fully recommend - especially at this reduced price.
