The flashiest M2 SSD might be the perfect answer to your custom build boot problems or expanding the storage of your PS5, but sometimes you just need a colossal amount of storage, as many terrabytes as you can possibly fit into a single 3.5-inch slot. Right now, at Newegg, you can score the legendary Seagate BarraCuda 24TB model for just $244, a cost of just $0.01 per GB. You can also opt for the smaller 16TB model, which is also on sale for only $194. If you're looking for even more options, head to our Best Amazon Prime Day Hard Drive deals 2025 article, which has tons of suggestions.

Both of these deals can be found at Newegg, with prices on both cheaper than anything Amazon has to offer. However, like Prime Day, the Newegg FantasTech sale if finite, and is set to end this weekend, that's if the drives don't sell out first.

Seagate BarraCuda 24TB ST24000DM001: was $299 now $244 at Newegg

With its 7,200 RPM speeds, the Seagate BarraCuda won't be giving your SSD a run for its money anytime soon. Rather, this deal is all about volume, volume, volume. When it comes to 'cheap and deep' storage, this is as cheap, and indeed nearly as deep, as it gets. Both of these drives hit 190MB/s, which is plenty fast for an HDD.

With the same 7,200 RPM, 190 MB/s and 512MB cache as the larger version, this is a slightly cheaper option if you think 24TB is a little over the top, but you still want enormous bang for your buck, again netting you 1GB for just $0.01.

Under the hood, you'll find premium Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) technology, which is significantly superior to Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) technology, as SMR is only marginally better than actual shingles, given its slow data transfer speeds.

As a reminder, you should only opt for an SMR drive if you are prepared to compromise speed to score a cheaper price. Unfortunately, that usually isn't the best tradeoff. No worries here, though, as both of these deals are for premium CMR drives.

You're getting decent protection, too, thanks to a two-year warranty courtesy of Seagate.

    Two year warranty for a massive amount of space is nonsense.

    Anything less than 5 years is not worth my time.

    I remember, at my college job in the computing center, thinking that it was an immutable truth that a 1GB drive cost $1,000, and it was going to be pretty much like that for a while, and it was for a while. This drive is one PENNY per GB.

    I know that you could spend all day talking about how technology has changed, but still, it is breath-taking.
