the SSD stuff is available ... but Amazon wants 2.4x more than last Spring for 4TB nvMe drives 馃槵
#Shrinkflation is paying an extra fifty bucks more for half (2TB) the quantity you got last year

Sorry, you cannot view this.
The article seems to be about HDDs not SSD.
@campuscodi after reading this I panic-bought an HD, (not from western digital, as I've been shafted by them in the past) 馃槄
@campuscodi ok but SSD price have already skyrocketed.
@campuscodi because of the slop everything is expensive. Great. Just great.
The bubble collapse can't come too soon.

@campuscodi o wonder if there's gonna be a glut of hardware when the bubble pops
@campuscodi Damnit, not again!
@campuscodi NO, no, no. Prepare for 30 different brands you'd never heard of before to come on the market, some of which will be quite good, and WD and the others to cry like little bitches.
Tech Bros buying all of Western Digital's HDD production for an entire year looks a lot less like a supply chain than an attempt to force people to live in their coercive AI world, which benefits only them.
@campuscodi Man the surplus market post crash is gonna be LIT!
@campuscodi the refurb mkt doesn't really care and dc pulls are going to happen and be a flood of parts - don't buy into fear, scarcity, urgency narrative, it is sort of exact opposite (eventually) #parts is parts
@campuscodi was looking for a 2.5" SSD last couple of weeks, at least in these parts of the world, it had already begun.
"When the AI bubble bursts, there will be a glut of hard-drives available in bankruptcy sales."
