1TB NVMe/SATA has been hovering around the $100 for a few years now, so I think it's about time for the prices to come down. I think that for Black Friday, we might see 2TB SATA/NVMe around $150.

You'll have to wait. At the current rate, it'll be at least 6 years, maybe 10 before SSDs that large are in the $300 range.

Except demand isn’t exactly the issue with high density nvme, it’s the yield from the silicon for these memory dies that is making them more expensive to manufacturer then lower density nvme drives

Then you have yield issues with high density NAND, most people here don't understand that unlike the smaller packages, a high density NVMe M.2 SSD actually does cost more to make, not less.
