With most new computers and tablets having switched to USB-C inputs, this is a great opportunity to modernize your portable storage. This already-affordable Samsung USB-C flash drive is down to a new all-time low today thanks to an instant 30% discount. 

You can never have too much external storage space, whether it's for backing up important files or transferring data from one PC to another. Samsung's USB-C flash drive makes it super easy and convenient to tote plenty of files around with a super compact design and a 128GB capacity. Right now, it's discounted to just $16 at Amazon, 30% off its retail price, dropping it down to a new all-time low.

Most modern laptops have moved to USB-C ports, so this Samsung drive is a future-proof option. It offers USB 3.1 read speeds of up to 400MBps meaning you can move around large amounts of data in seconds. Its 128GB capacity is enough space for tens of thousands of photos and up to 12 hours of 4K video making ideal for backing up your family photo library. And despite its sleek looks, it's also pretty rugged with resistance to water, shocks, magnets, extreme temperatures and more.

The current sale on this Samsung flash drive forms a part of Amazon's huge Gaming Week sale, which includes tons of PCs, accessories and games, so we anticipate the price will rise on May 28 when that sale ends, though it's best to grab one sooner than that to avoid missing out.
