Lot of bundles now available directly on WD, especially for WD Blue series. Pair up a WD Blue NVMe or SATA SSD along with a WD Blue HDD. One of the best pairings I could find:
-
WD Blue SN570 NVMe 1TB [westerndigital.com] 69.99 --> 59.50
-
WD Blue 8TB HDD (WD80EAZZ, 5640 RPM, CMR) [westerndigital.com] 119.99 --> 102.00
- Total 161.50
SN570 1TB was also going for 69.99 during BF so this seems like a solid deal if you were planning to get both.
The SN570 NVMe drive benchmarks very well among all gen 3 SSDs, despite using HMB (no DRAM):

Stack with cash back offers from your usual cash back plugins as well.

Alternatively, you could spend $650 for something like an 8TB Samsung 870 QVO, but that seems a bit of a waste to me for mass storage.
I almost could use another 8GB drive. Gotta pass on this deal though, but thanks for the post.

I'll still probably pick up a set for my recently purchased Dell Optiplex 5050 SFF.
AFAIK, this is the lowest price I've ever seen for the 1TB WD Blue SN570 at 59.50. It recently hit $70 throughout BF/CM and was $80-100 earlier this year. The 2TB isn't much of a deal right now though since it was down to $135 during BF/CM. With the discount now, the 2TB still comes out to $136 so I figured the specific combo I listed might be of more interest. $136 doesn't seem too bad though, especially since other value TLC NVMe drives with good benchmarks are uncommon at this price point. You can also try the Kingston NV2, but it seems to have gotten mixed reviews lately after getting a glowing launch review from Techpowerup.
Most recently, I ordered a 2TB wd blue sn570 from WD late on Cyber Monday. Shipping confirmation was Weds, and it arrived Friday. Probably a day faster for me than for some since I'm on the west coast and it shipped from CA.
My recent order was $135 with a 5% cash back offer from a certain well known plugin. So $128.25, in case it helps anyone looking for deals.
