why the fuck are SSD still expensive since i bought my last 500gb

>>60879482
ahhh no you didnt

Yeah, I don't get it either. I bought my sandisk 120GB ssd for $40 two years ago and they've never been that cheap ever since.

I'm guessing that the storage manufacturers are intentionally inflating the price of SSD's, because if you could buy a 120GB ssd for $20-$30 and pair it with $50 1TB harddrive, you'd have no incentive to spend anymore money on higher capacity ssd's.

As it is, if you're going to spend $60 on a 120GB ssd, you may as well go the extra mile and buy a 240GB ssd for $90.

price fixing
demand from laptops
retards supporting the price fixing

>DDR3 RAM actually INCREASED in price

Why is this allowed?

>>60879594
The same thing happened with DDR2 a few years ago. It's weird.

>TrendForce reports that this DRAM price increase also stands as proof of the changing paradigm between the three top memory makers: Samsung, Hynix, and Micron, which TrendForce reports have "opted for co-existence as the best way to maximize their own profitability."
>They are, therefore, "turning away from aggressively competing for market share through price reduction and capacity expansion.

Hahaha, they're not even denying anymore they're a cartel.

Smartphones and tablets are eating up the flash memory stocks

(((CAPITALISM))), not even once.

You will buy DRAMs for Threadripper right goy?

>>60879553
This. Industry wide collusion that will probably take 10+ years to prove in court. Enough time for whatever settlement won by courts to be a drop of water in the ocean.
