How we track prices

Every price here comes from our own records. We check listings from eBay and Walmart every day through their official product APIs, and we store a dated price point whenever a price or its stock status changes, so the history shows what we actually saw at the time and is never rewritten later. The drive tables count only new US offers of 500 GB and up that are still listed. Used, refurbished, open-box, damaged-box and "for parts" listings are left out, and so are SAS, enterprise and pulled drives, multi-size lots, and drives priced below what that class realistically sells for. Each product appears once, at its lowest new price, and only drives with a comparison page are linked. Product prices are the lowest live price across stores, the same number the product page shows. Category trend lines use the daily median, so one odd listing can't swing the chart. We may earn a commission when you buy through our links. It never changes what we show or how we rank it. More detail: how PriceSniff works.

Price per terabyte ($/TB) is the drive's lowest current price divided by its capacity, so a 4 TB drive at $80 ($20/TB) ranks ahead of a 1 TB drive at $30 ($30/TB) even though the smaller drive costs less up front. We rank each storage class separately because their $/TB floors differ by an order of magnitude, and mixing them would bury a good SSD deal under bulk spinning disks.

Frequently asked questions

How much does 1 TB of storage cost?

About $40 per terabyte on an internal hard drive and $137 per terabyte on an NVMe SSD, going by today's median across the drives we track. The cheapest drives in each table below come in well under those medians.

Is it cheaper per TB to buy a bigger drive?

Usually, yes. Right now a 16 TB Toshiba drive at $313.06 ($19.57/TB) beats a 4 TB WD drive at $84.99 ($21.25/TB) on cost per terabyte. Small drives carry the same fixed costs (case, motor, controller) spread over fewer terabytes.

Why are SSD prices going up in 2026?

Flash memory makers are moving capacity toward AI data-center products, and TrendForce expects NAND flash contract prices to rise another 15–20% this quarter. Our own SSD medians have held roughly flat since late September, but the contract market points up; our SSD price trend page has the details. Why SSD prices are going up →

What's the cheapest way to get 10 TB or more?

A single large hard drive. Today's best 10 TB+ options are an internal 3.5-inch hard drive (16 TB Toshiba drive at $313.06 ($19.57/TB)) and a desktop external drive (12 TB Western Digital drive at $224.95 ($18.75/TB)). Right now the external drive is the cheaper way to buy the terabytes, and it plugs into any USB port.
