Make sure your drive controller can handle HMB ( no DRAM) if you buy this.

Buying a two-year-old drive at a $100 markup is absolute madness, so hold onto your pennies unless your current storage is literally on fire.

100 markup?

i believe i got a few for 4T nvme SSD in 2023 for 125 dollars.

Whatever the markup is, I am just trying to keep people from panic buying over whatever AI scapegoat the industry is hiding behind this week. Supply and demand only functions properly if consumers actually push back against inflated RAM and SSD prices instead of just accepting them during these corporate social experiments.

Certainly a terrible deal in terms of pre-AI prices.

"Pre AI prices" is just buzz for normal pricing before companies realized they could blame everything on the AI boom to hike margins. These consumer drives aren't even used in AI datacenters, so paying a $100+ markup for two-year-old hardware is pure madness.

Fair enough but unless the capex stops from these hyperscalers, I don't see these coming down any time soon and the ssd makers will prioritize them always and these all get assembled on the same plants. I do think if one of them scales back, it spells the end of this madness for better or for worse since it's making up a significant percentage of the economy.

Yes and No. The issue here is that there are multiple sources of demand. Consumer demand vs Corporate/Data Center demand. Consumers don't want to pay these prices. However corporate demand is dwarfing the consumer demand right now. Literally some hardware component manufacturers have completely exited the market for consumer goods.
  • Micron shutdown Crucial and exited the consumer business
  • Samsung is heavily prioritizing corporate customers
  • Nvidia shelved all 2026 graphic card releases
  • AMD has slowed consumer products releases
Companies must focus on more profitable business. This is capitalism. They aren't charities...So they don't care if you don't buy components at inflated demand driven prices right now.

With that said, there may be better deals than this available from time to time.

They aren't used in data centers. However the component manufacturers have switched their manufacturing capacity and foundries to focus on corporate products. They simply are not designing and manufacturing consumer oriented PC components right now. So they don't care if you don't buy them or hold out for cheaper prices. They just won't make any of them until this is over.

Sure, corporate focus shifted to data centers, but as a consumer, that doesn't change the math.
When a two-year-old mid-range drive carries a $100+ markup over its original launch price, it's a raw deal for individual buyers regardless of corporate strategy. Pointing out supply constraints doesn't make a $390 price tag on a $200 drive any less painful to pay out of pocket.

That is valid regarding production lines, but it still does not change the math for us. Shifted manufacturing capacity explains why supply is low, but it does not magically turn a two year old mid range drive into a good deal at $390. We are allowed to call a bad consumer value what it is and hold onto our cash until things settle down.

They won't settle down. Pricing will stabilize at levels much higher than before the boom but they will never return to the prices of 2 years ago. In case you haven't noticed, everything is more expensive. It's not just memory. So if the ai demand dies the memory will also be as expensive as everything else has gotten.
