Storage deals are the silent champions of Cyber Week. They don't get the praise that big-ticket items like TVs do, but they show up at consistently good prices throughout this shopping season. Here's an assortment of the best drives at prices that will save you some money. (Get it? Because you save files? Yeah!)
Be sure to check back often, as we'll continue to update this page with all the latest and best storage deals.
NEW!Store: Best Buy
Price: $179.99 with free shipping
Lowest By: $20
Expires: November 30
Is It Worth It?: As life becomes increasingly digital (not, like, in a "we got sucked into a computer a la TRON", but in a "I sure have a lot of digital files" way), we need places to keep all that e-stuff. This external hard drive bumps up your total storage capacity while saving you $5 off last week's mention and the lowest total price we've seen. (It's the best deal today by $20.) It features automatic and mobile backup options.

Price: $22.99 with free shipping via Prime
Lowest By: $5
Is It Worth It?: Sure, if you're not an Amazon Prime member, then there is a shipping fee (or you can pad your order over $35 to get free shipping). But if you're one of the trillions(?) of elite, then you can save on this drive that's a $4 drop last month's mention and the lowest total price we've seen. (It's also a current low by $5.) It features both microUSB and USB 3.0 plugs and features transfer speeds of up to 130MB/s.
Of note: Newegg and Samsung charge the same.
