It’s incredible how much the prices have fallen and that’s how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering.
The 960 Evo still chugs along albeit it’s a new one because a few months after I bought it, I had to RMA it. I guess that’s what happens when you are an early adopter. I lost a few hours of work when the original 960 Evo decided to stop working but it also taught me to be more paranoia with backups.
My first SSD was a 128 GB OCz Vertex3. Price comparable to the 2600K I bought it with.
I had some OCZ drive that I think cost me £130 for 120GB. Pretty much £1 per GB. It’s crazy just how cheap storage is now. I purchased a 240GB SSD today for £13.99. A considerable upgrade to the current mechanical drive in my kids laptop!
Get off my lawn! My first 260MB Harddisk cost me around €300 25 years ago. Still, boot times where similar to that of a modern PC which has1000x more CPU power, ram and transfer speed…
