That’s honestly not that bad. I might have to get one of these some day.

Prime Day allows you to get a 960gb SanDisk for about $150.

The deal ended shortly after you posted that. Glad I bought one this morning.

I would have grabbed one if I had any plans to build a desktop. I can’t afford to build a solid gaming pc so there’s no real point in buying an ssd now.

Bought one for $240 a few months ago.

Yep, caved in and bought that. The 30 off 150 Amazon Visa thing was burning a hole in my pocket.

Yep, as I forked over < $150 for a 960GB drive today I marvelled at the fact that 2.5 years ago I paid nearly three times that for a 750GB (and that was a pretty solid deal at the time).

Of course now I probably need to buy a new spinning disk for backups...
