Recently there was a sale on Amazon and I happen to need a new solid state drive as the year has filled up my previous 2TB drive. While looking at the sales I saw the exact same drive I was using and the price seemed very decent at about $150 for 2TB. The thing that really got me to think is how I paid over $200 for this same drive earlier in the year. Can you imagine if back then I bought more than one drive knowing I will need more in the future where at the time I thought it was a great price? I would have lost so much money versus just buying it at this new sales price.<\/p>\n
Apparently, prices are coming down for memory in general. But this is a great example how when it comes to computer and electronics it can be a bad idea just to stock up based on potential needs almost a year away since the prices change so fast. This is not like stocking up on canned goods as an example where if there is a great deal that stuff can last a long time with prices potentially getting even more expensive due to inflation. Your current tech product will most likely become cheaper unless there is a worldwide supply issue.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, I made the right guess in this situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
