Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about TerabytePrices.com and how we help you find the best storage deals.

What is TerabytePrices.com?

TerabytePrices.com is a price comparison website that helps you find the best value storage devices by comparing prices per terabyte. We aggregate prices from Amazon UK and calculate the cost per TB so you can easily identify the best deals on hard drives, SSDs, NVMe drives, and other storage devices.

How is price per terabyte calculated?

Price per terabyte (£/TB) is calculated by dividing the total price of the storage device by its capacity in terabytes. For example, a 4TB drive priced at £80 would have a price per TB of £20. This metric allows you to compare value across different capacity drives.

How often are prices updated?

We update our prices daily to ensure you're seeing current pricing information. However, prices on Amazon can change at any time, so we always recommend verifying the final price on Amazon before making a purchase.

Why do some products show as 'Renewed' or 'Used'?

We include both new and renewed/refurbished products in our comparisons. Renewed products are pre-owned items that have been inspected, tested, and restored to working condition. They often offer significant savings compared to new products. You can filter by condition using the sidebar filters.

Do you sell storage devices directly?

No, we don't sell products directly. TerabytePrices.com is a price comparison service. When you click 'View Deal', you'll be taken to Amazon UK where you can complete your purchase. All transactions are handled by Amazon.

How do you make money?

We participate in the Amazon Associates Programme. When you click on our links and make a purchase on Amazon, we earn a small commission. This doesn't affect the price you pay – you pay the same whether you use our links or go directly to Amazon. For more details, see our Affiliate Disclosure.

What types of storage devices do you compare?

We compare a wide range of storage devices including: Internal Hard Drives (HDD), Solid State Drives (SSD), NVMe drives, External Hard Drives, External SSDs, USB Flash Drives, and SD Cards. You can filter by drive type using the sidebar.

Why might a price be different on Amazon?

Prices on Amazon can change frequently throughout the day. While we update our data daily, there may be a delay between when Amazon changes a price and when it's reflected on our site. Always check the final price on Amazon before purchasing.

How do I know which drive is right for me?

It depends on your needs: For bulk storage and backups, HDDs offer the best value per TB. For faster performance, SSDs are better. NVMe drives are fastest but typically more expensive per TB. External drives are great for portable storage. Consider your use case, required capacity, and budget when choosing.

Are the products on your site reliable?

We display products from reputable brands sold on Amazon UK. However, we recommend reading customer reviews on Amazon and checking the seller's ratings before making a purchase. We're not responsible for product quality – that's between you and Amazon/the manufacturer.

Can I suggest a feature or report an issue?

Absolutely! We're always looking to improve TerabytePrices.com. If you have suggestions, find incorrect information, or encounter any issues, please contact us through our website.

Do you track my personal information?
