I just looked up prices for servers we sell out work.
They saw a price increase of 47%.
The SSDs and RAM saw an increase of about 25% and ~150% respectively.
Absolutely ludicrous and BS (ironically both the price and available stock increased. So it’s just preying on the market instead of an actual shortage lol)







That’s why this is perfect for a distributed array or as a data mass grave.
You don’t really store anything in there that is needed often.
Guess why (deep-)archive S3 is so much cheaper than hot S3 storage.
That’s a reason why.
