If Amazon is going to custom "adjust" prices for each person, then websites like SD no longer have value.

I was able to offload something like 120 hard drives, a bunch of DDR3 / DDR4 / DDR5 and SATA SSDs at much higher prices than just months before. It was a great time to get rid of things that had become low-margin. Now however, I wince when I find myself needing something like a 2TB NVMe, or 32GB DDR5. Those prices are becoming brutal. CPUs so far have evaded the massive price spikes, with a few exceptions.
For the deal at hand, this is around one of the better prices I've seen for a good quality 2.5" 6TB HDD. Just know what it can and can't do well. Hard Drives are one of the best ways to store things for long term storage, and still the cheapest dollar per TB you can find. Random read/writes are where hard drives suffer, so don't store games on these, unless they are your roms collection. They are clearly being hoovered up in the datacenter bubble, so these prices will be holdings and possibly going higher this year until the bubble pops.
