I'm in the process of setting up a computer for my school's office and I've got a Dell Optiplex 7060 SFF that currently has no storage. I'm looking for around 1 TB of total storage but want to keep my budget to about $120, which should cover everything including wires and any necessary caddies. I found a combo deal that includes a Western Digital 1TB 7200RPM 3.5" SATA HDD for $40 and a SanDisk PC SA530 256GB SSD for $60, totaling up to $100. Is this the best option I can find for that price? I've already checked sites like BestBuy, Office Depot, Newegg, and eBay. Are there any other reputable sites I should consider?

I noticed that your system has an M.2 slot—definitely look for a cheaper M.2 SSD. Paying $60 for 256GB sounds a bit steep. You could probably find better deals if you look around.
Honestly, with the current market situation because of the NAND-flash memory shortage, it's tough to find much better deals than what you have. Prices for RAM and SSDs have shot up due to demand.
You might want to consider going with a single NVMe SSD instead. It could save you space and potentially speed up your system! Check out some options on PCPartPicker; they often have good deals available.
Walmart and Target are great places to check for storage options too. They often have updated pricing that can save you money. They have a KingSpec 1TB M.2 SATA SSD for $114. Just a thought!
