We've seen a bunch of nice deals on 2.5-inch SATA solid state drives in recent weeks, though for the most part, faster NVMe SSDs still carry a premium. That hasn't changed today. However, Toshiba says its new "value-optimized" RC100 series SSDs are now available at affordable price points.
"With the RC100 Series, we set out to address a major complaint that users have with NVMe drives—their expense," said Alex Mei, vice president marketing, consumer SSDs and storage outbound marketing at TMA. "Not only are our new SSDs more affordable than the enthusiast NVMe drives on the market, they are more compact and power efficient as well. With the RC100 Series, we’re opening the door for mainstream adoption of the M.2 NVMe standard—and all of the benefits it brings."
