After dipping to historical lows earlier in the decade, storage pricing per TB has exploded amid the AI boom. According to data collected by Tom’s Hardware, some solid-state drives now cost two to three times their historic lows, and it’s not just SSDs. Mechanical drives haven’t been immune either.
