How to read these numbers

On November 6, 2026, the Radar tracks 68 models of SSD of type nvme and price up to $1,500: median price of $274, 14% above the catalog’s ($240). Prices range from $96 to $1,227.

How we choose
  • The picks combine a high rating and a price in line with the list: each one fits a way of spending, a use, or the brand that shows up most. The pros and cons come from each model’s spec sheet.
  • Stores: Amazon. We include stores we read every day through an open source or an affiliate program: the Radar collection, the Amazon catalog and the factory price database. A store that failed to load today is left out.
  • The same model in two stores is only merged with a catalog code, GTIN or the manufacturer’s full code. When in doubt, only one store is kept. A price far from the collected one (below 60% or above 150%) is left out.
  • Amazon appears without a price, only with the link: we don’t read Amazon prices in bulk.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a SSD of type nvme and price up to $1,500 cost?

In the Nov 6, 2026 catalog, the median price of the 68 models in the segment is $274, and prices range from $96 to $1,227. The final price is the one at the store.

How does the Radar count the models in this segment?

Includes models whose title or listing states the type nvme. Listings without the data stay out. With at least one version at the lowest collected price up to $1,500. Each model counts once: if it has more than one version within the rule, the price is that of the cheapest version and the others show on the card.

How does the Radar choose the SSDs on the "best score for the price" line?

From cheapest to most expensive, the SSD that has a higher spec score than all the cheaper ones in the segment makes the line. Anything that costs more and has an equal or lower score is left out. The line doesn’t say which SSD to buy: it only shows which ones don’t lose on both score and price at once.
