When we reviewed the Samsung T9, we gave it 4.5 stars and our Editors' Choice award, appreciating its overall fast performance, its grippy textured surface, and its reassuring five-year warranty. At this price, the T9 is a fantastic deal. You're getting a super-sleek and super-fast portable SSD that hits data speeds up to 2,000 MB/s, plus protection against accidents like bumps and drops.
You'll be able to use the Samsung T9 with just about any device you have at home, be it your laptop, smartphone, gaming console, or camera. And don't worry about carrying this one with you anywhere you go because it's compact, slim, and lightweight. It's barely larger than your credit card, measuring 0.55 inches thick and weighing just 0.27 pounds.
So, what are you waiting for? Snag the 2TB Samsung T9 for $170 before this deal vanishes into thin air. And remember, it's a Prime deal, so start a 30-day free trial if you aren't a Prime member yet. Not the right SSD for you? Check out

It feels like an odd move for the Golden Globes (which started handing out an award for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement last year) to wade into the podcasting world. Still, it's nice to see a mainstream awards ceremony shining a spotlight on podcasts. There are dedicated awards shows for podcasts, but the Golden Globes is putting them on a bigger stage.
