Pablo Escobar used to announce the price of cocaine on the radio every day, but you will not know even the estimate for an SSD :-)

- wmf 2y agoThere are a few retailers that carry enterprise SSDs so you don't have to "call for pricing", eg. https://www.wiredzone.com/shop/category/components-hard-drives-115?order=list_price+desc&filter=46-658&filter=49-705&filter=49-706&category=115 https://www.wiredzone.com/shop/category/components-hard-driv...
- choppaface 2y agoFor those who don’t want to click thru: the link shows Gen 4 60 TB drives from Western Digital and Solidigm for ~$7,262.00 ($121/TB). The Micron Gen 5 part is likely much more money. Note on eBay there are currently many listings for 2018-era Intel 8TB P4510 Gen 3 drives, some for as little as $50/TB. These drives have great (enterprise) endurance and performance and became a key part in the sale from Intel to Solidigm. The Micron listing is certainly a milestone, but the NVME market is getting as crowded as CPUs (e.g. 10-year-old Haswell is still plenty useful today).
- DaiPlusPlus 2y ago> $121/TB Huh - that seems quite reasonable, actually.
