If you’ve been thinking of buying some additional storage, but the crazy prices SSDs have been going for have put you off, I’ve got a fantastic deal that not only solves that problem but also fixes another worry a lot of people have in February.

Newegg has cut the price of the 8TB WD_BLACK SN850X NVMe SSD to $1219 (was $2240) at Newegg.

The WD_BLACK SN850X 8TB NVMe SSD is built for long-term, high-performance storage, offering read speeds up to 7,300MB/s and massive capacity. With a five-year warranty and 4,800TBW endurance rating, it can serve as a primary drive for years.

Rather than treating the tax software as a boring add-on, it makes more sense to see it as a practical offset. If you’re already spending real money on storage, having your 2025 return handled without another checkout screen popping up is a quiet win.

It’s easy to dismiss free software as filler, but this offer has arrived at exactly the right time of year. It’s one less thing to budget for, and one less task to procrastinate over.

On the storage side, 8TB is effectively a “never delete anything again” amount of space for most people. It’s enough to consolidate internal drives, retire external backups, and keep years of files, media, and projects in one place. For anyone juggling multiple SSDs just to stay afloat, that has real value.

The SN850X offers read speeds up to 7,300MB/s and write speeds up to 6,600MB/s, it handles large file transfers, archives, and system-level tasks without becoming a bottleneck.

The drive carries a five-year warranty and a rated endurance of 4,800TBW, which makes it suitable for long-term use as a primary drive, not just overflow storage.

When you add it all up, this isn’t just a massive discount on hardware. You’re saving over $1,000 on the SSD itself and skipping the $50 to $80 many people spend on tax software each year. It’s a rare case where the free extra actually earns its keep.
