| Mr Puggsly said: If a $40 1TB SD is feasible, then it could happen. It would suck considering we are already hitting 100GB with the current assets. Frankly, I would probably opt to buy a standard external with 4GB just to have more storage even if it means longer loads. |
Right now a WD and Crucial 1TB M.2 ssd (sata 3) on amazon is $130.
By 2020 and if prices continue dropping as they have been as the industry has fully jumped onto SSD storage, a 1TB SSD could be as little as $80 on amazon.
For OEMs that same SSD can cost as little as $40. And it will cost them even less if they opt to solder the chips directly onto the boards.
Right now a 1TB 2.5 inch HDD cost around $57. But costs sony and MS around $25-$30.
