Me getting excited for a deal on an NVMe SSD for under 400USD total recently was… sad. I have a receipt from when we built my partner’s computer… two 2TB NVMe drives for 85 each. Can uhhhhhh I please have bought ten instead of two?
I’m actually quite glad the pricing hasn’t hit internet connections. 1Gbps means I can just delete games and put them back in minimal time if I fancy playing them again…
Careful about flashing that kind of cash
SSDs as well. I stuck 2TB in my PS5 for under 100 quid.
Now they’re closer to 300.

Similarly, SD and microSD cards. Much like RAM and storage, I wished I threw away my adult responsibility a bit and stocked up on them
I actually had to look up M2 drives to see if the image above was those.
M2 has the connectors on the end rather than the side, but they don’t look too different otherwise.
RAM is the new component to become overpriced.
It is <2016, 2019, 2026>*. I’m using a 1050Ti.
* new, re-used in otherwise new build, and not buying anything respectively.
