It’s incredible how much the prices have fallen and that’s how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering.
The 960 Evo still chugs along albeit it’s a new one because a few months after I bought it, I had to RMA it. I guess that’s what happens when you are an early adopter. I lost a few hours of work when the original 960 Evo decided to stop working but it also taught me to be more paranoia with backups.
What’s the catch?
I mean is it getting cheaper because SSDs generally have lower life expectancy?
More supply & lower demand = cheaper goods, plus technology that creates it gets more wide spread so competition arises, and many other factors contribute to the fall in prices such as an improved model coming out making older models cheaper.
The increasing spread of cheap good technology isn’t really about the new hotness coming out it’s about last decade stuff finally becoming affordable.
