Do you want to upgrade from your old hard drives to Solid State Drives but could not afford one? I’ve got good news for you, now is your chance to upgrade to SSD. Prices of SSDs started to fall, significantly, since second quarter of 2012. NAND Flash-based storage devices started to become cheaper as competition gets tougher. But this does not mean their prices are similar to HHD. They are still expensive compared to HHD, but solid state drives became more affordable. I’ve manage to list down some SSDs below, with updated price and were you can buy them.
Some of the SSDs below are from Crucial, SanDisk, Kingston, Intel, Samsung, OCZ and Corsair. These are popular products from popular brands. Their prices significantly went down, up to 60% off on some brands and depending on the size. Let me remind you that prices are subject to change.
