Cost is and always will be relative.
- sjs 17y agoEspecially when things move as fast as they do with memory and storage. Just 5 or 6 years ago I was buying a new 80gb SATA disk for just over CAD$100 (iirc). We've gone from around $1/gb then to almost exactly 10¢/gb. Probably cheaper for you guys south of the 49th. edit: DirectCanada has disks cheaper than NCIX by almost 2¢/gb as well. In comparison the average price for an SSD is CAD$375 for ~120gb, so let's call it $400 to make things easy, it's going to cost more with tax anyway. So it's around $3/gb or $3.50/gb which is 35x the cost. However if you are building a new box and spending $1500+ anyway then an SSD is probably a very wise choice.
