That’s even cheaper than the 4TB model of the same highly rated drive. This phenomenal pre-Prime Day deal slashes over $260 from the price of one of the best external drives on the market.

The provision, which was championed by White House AI czar and venture capitalist David Sacks, has proved remarkably unpopular with a diverse contingent of government officials, ranging from 40 state attorneys general to the ultra-MAGA representative Marjorie Taylor Green
