External hard drives like the ones from Kingston have become even more affordable as more new storage devices start popping up. This has also made "terabytes" even more affordable than back in the days when a gigabyte was still relatively large and, thus, expensive.

External Storages Start to Become More Affordable to Regular Buyers

Gone are the days when storing data was costly, as external memory with terabytes capacity has become more affordable. While a hard disk drive (HDD) with terabytes capacity is now within reach, a solid-state drive (SSD) with terabytes capacity is still expensive.

However, Android Authority reported that the Kingston XS2000 4TB Portable SSD is now on sale for more than 50% off. The price drop resulted in the external memory costing less than half its original cost.

Affordable Options For Kingston External Storage Include a 500GB

There are other affordable alternatives if buyers do not need the 4TB. The cheaper alternative was the 2TB external storage listed at $159.99 and the 1TB option at $79.99.

The most affordable option for the Kingston XS2000 is the 500GB option, which still sells for just $61.50 on Amazon. The device offers fast transfer speeds of up to 2,000 MBps and is compatible with most devices due to USB 3.2 connectivity.
