    There is an epic glut of flash memory, also known as NAND, that won't correct for many more months. NAND is a commodity, where there isn't much you can do to distinguish your NAND from anyone else's, among the big producers. If you won't cut your prices, that means customers flock to competitors and you get $0 for your ever-increasing pile of unsold NAND. If you try to produce less NAND, that hurts you because you make a lot less money while your rivals keep making and producing NAND. If we have a recession in the back half of the year like some are predicting, then that will drive prices even lower. https://www.techspot.com/news/974...first.html

    I wouldn't buy this drive unless I needed it ASAP. I might buy once it falls below $100.

    Looking forward to seeing 4TB drives below $200 Smilie

    Yup! Plus these manufacturers are colliding with the reality that file size/media has adjusted everyone's thinking of what is a lot of storage.

    Just 2 years ago, it was "wow, 512gb is NICE!"

    2023? "What a megabyte?

    1 Terrabyte is fast becoming the new 256Gb of years ago, if not already.

    Current pricing would make sense when multiple by at least 2.

    Ie, 4TB must fall below 200, and not just $199.. more like $159

    Wow if I didn't have all my sata cables occupied I would grab these. Maybe I will to replace one of my lower capacity drives. Even though I don't need it.

    Why this instead of much faster M.2 drives

    M.2 takes up an m.2 slot…you fill up all of your m.2 slots then add a sata drive. Or you might not have an m.2 slot or room for a pci expansion.

    I think this is one of the best prices we've seen for a 2 TB SSD. But you're right, one should really look for a M.2 drive, given that they're really superior in every way. When you look at benchmarks, the difference between these SATA drives and the PCIe/M.2 drives is pretty small outside of some specific use cases.
