Sure, that's the economical aspect of it.
On the other hand it means the technology is established and people prefer to buy SSDs over HDs. Speaking of myself, I wouldn't consider buying an HD laptop ever again.
This means companies can invest in very long-term endeavours to transform their HDD production businesses into SSD production businesses. The costs are high but the risk is low, lower or at best equally high of continuing with HDDs if you ask me.
- jburgess777 8y agoThe article below has a graph showing the number of "Client SSD vs HDD units" shipped by Samsung over the last 6 years. Given current trends, the SSD shipments will very likely exceed HDD in the next 12 months. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/11/23/ssd_market_q3fy18/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/11/23/ssd_market_q3fy18/
