Hard Drive Prices Up 150% In Less Than Two Months The Register reports that hard drive prices (lowest average unit prices) have rocketed 151% from October 1 to November 14th. The worst days have seen over 5% daily price increases. This is commonly attributed to the floods in Thailand, but there are concerns of artificial price fixing and suspicion that retailers or members of the supply channel are taking advantage of the situation. http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/1...t+%28rdf%29%29 |
- Never thought 500 GB drives would come back into style...and yet they're what my friends are specc'ing into their machines these days. - That's okay. We just store stuff in the cloud nowadays. - It is clouds all the way down. - And what, pray tell, do you imagine the cloud stores data on? Turtles? - Quote:
