Every drive we scored for this list

38 drives, sorted by score. The retailer link goes to the cheapest of our stores.

How to read these scores

Each drive gets up to three ratings out of 100: speed (the maker's maximum sequential read), warranty term, and value (speed against price per GB). A buyer profile weights them. Tiers: S 90+, A 80–89, B 70–79, C 60–69, D below 60. Where a maker page does not state the warranty, we leave that row out and re-spread the weights; we never guess. Speeds are the maker's "up to" figures for the model line; smaller capacities are often slower. Read the full method.
