This is some kind of advertisement. This is a low-performing DRAM-less drive.
"Good" drives like the Crucial MX500 were regularly found for $100 during the second half of last year Prices jumped and are slowly coming back down.

- JadeNB 7y ago> This is some kind of advertisement. I initially misread the domain as 'anandtech.com', and the logo sure seems like it would be happy to be mistaken for AnandTech's. The site also carries explicit adverts like https://arador.com/how-to-earn-176-in-under-an-hour-by-learning-about-crypto https://arador.com/how-to-earn-176-in-under-an-hour-by-learn... .
- PatrolX 7y agoThe price just shot up from $97.99 to $250+ in the past few minutes (Amazon algo due to sudden interest?) and the post was updated with a link that shows ALL SSD drives. The fact still remains, SSD prices for 1TB drives have dropped significantly.
- wtallis 7y agoAt the end of 2019, everyone was expecting the NAND flash memory market to be on its way toward a shortage in 2H2020, and the major oversupply that pushed prices so low was over. When the coronavirus hit, it was initially unclear whether it would do more to depress supply or demand, so price trends weren't very consistent (especially with lots of stuff going temporarily out of stock). Now the picture seems to be that NAND production hasn't been slowed much but demand is way down, especially for client/consumer drives (as opposed to server SSDs).
