SSD Finder

Four questions — how much capacity, what you can spend, which bus it runs on and whether you want a particular brand — across 205 drives. Every result is placed against the median for its own class and capacity band.

Your requirements

How much capacity do you need?

Bands follow the binary capacities drives actually report — a 4 TB drive publishes 4,096 GB, not 4,000. Price per terabyte barely improves above 1 TB on SSDs, so buying larger to save money works far less well here than it does on hard drives.

What can you spend?

A ceiling, not a band — each option includes everything cheaper. Prices move daily, so these are tiers rather than amounts.

Which bus will it run on?

This is the ceiling, and nothing else moves it. A SATA drive meets the same limit whatever it costs; an NVMe drive on PCIe runs several times faster. Check what your machine has before paying for a drive it cannot feed.

Any brand in particular?

Only brands with at least eight drives in this corpus are offered — a filter that returns three products is not a filter. Unlike every other question here, this one excludes drives whose listing does not name a brand: a seller who did not say who made it has not made a Samsung.

How to read the results

A result is not a recommendation. A drive appears because its listing publishes the figures the comparison needs, and it is shown against the median for its own class so you can see where it sits rather than being told it is best.

Prices are shown as tiers rather than amounts, because the price on Amazon at the moment you buy is the only one that is true. The methodology page explains what is withheld and why.
