If you happen to be in the market for both a new SSD and Borderlands 3, well, the stars have aligned. Samsung is currently running a promotion bundling a code for Gearbox's new loot shooter with select SSD models at Australian retail and online outlets. The offer runs until October 31, so you've got plenty of time to deliberate.
There's a wide range of SATA and NVMe internal SSDs you can choose from, and both of the Samsung models included in our Best SSDs For Gaming list are part of the promotion. Borderlands 3 comes in the form of a download code redeemable on the Epic Games Store.
Our sister site Getprice has handily put together a page that compares pricing for the models on offer at some of the biggest Australian computer retailers, but you'll find below our handpicked highlights:
Samsung 860 QVO SATA III 2TB - $309 @ MWave
A dependable 2TB drive. It's not the fastest on the market but it's reliably secure, boasting AES 256-bit encryption with Windows Bitlocker support.
Samsung 860 QVO SATA III 4TB - $658 @ MWave
This is the 4TB model of the above, in case you're super averse to ever deleting a game.
Samsung 860 Evo 1TB - $198 @ MWave
A cheap but very cheerful 1TB drive. According to our expert, the 860 Evo "remains one of the fastest SATA drives overall".
Samsung 860 Evo 2TB - $449 @ MWave
This is the 2TB equivalent to the above.
