For the first time this year, we can no longer say that SSD prices keep on rising. While some drives are slightly more expensive, others have dropped in price, which is always good news.

I'd like to also see pricing comparisons for 4TB and larger SSDs. In my experience it seems like there's a lot more price variability with the larger SSDs.
512gb is pretty much useless as a gaming SSD these days, as a couple of recent titles will get close to filling it.
1tb is ok for now, but you really need 2tb for future use.
I'm sorted for now, but still hesitant to upgrade unless 2tb drops by 20% or so.

Sometimes DRAMless SSDs are a good option

The kingston fury SSD is down in price big time, especially the 4TB one. It used to be 400 bucks, now its 300. Samsung 990pro used to be 450 here, now its down to 350. I have noticed how SSDs are down in price, so yay? They were scaring us after all.. I did buy overpriced SSDS cus I was fearing what Samsung said. They won in the end lol. Not only things didnt get more expensive, things got a lot cheaper. Should have known better... altho... there were a lot of facts showing it might become a reality.

I'm soooo glad I bought a buttload of 2 & 4TB 850X's ($8K worth) late last year, when the prices bottomed out big time...
Most of them were/are for Q1 & 2 client builds, and I used a few to upgrade my personal rigs, but I still have enough for the rest of this year, so I'm a happy camper

I have 2 games that won't even fit together on it, lol.
