If you’re running out of storage space on your Switch or other game consoles, here’s sale for you. Amazon’s Deal of the Day is all about storage. Between now and midnight, you can save lots of cash on SanDisk microSD cards and WD external hard drives. That includes this 512GB microSD card that’s dropped to its lowest price yet ($50.49). So take a look at what’s available, and grab whatever you want before the prices go back up.

I’d say the biggest standout deal here is the 512GB microSD card, which offers tons of storage space for the money. It’s the best deal we’ve ever seen on that particular card. It’s compatible with Nintendo Switch, which comes with extremely little onboard storage.
It’s also compatible with the upcoming Steam Deck — and just in time, too. The first batch of units is expected to arrive next month for those who locked in their preorders as early as possible. Check out our coverage for Steam Deck release date news.
Also on sale today only are a variety of hard drives, both external and internal. The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S all ship with relatively little storage, so it’s good to keep an external unit attached, even if the consoles can’t play newer games off of them. You can still use them to store newer games for quick transfers to the internal storage, and you can play backwards compatible games straight from them.
Anyway, pick up whatever storage solutions in the sale you want soon, because the prices go back up at midnight.
