I have the HDDs, but I can't get a nas at a decent price at all. These fucking billionaires have to go or they will happily end us all before taking their claws out

Sounds convenient after not long ago they cut production on the back of slowing demand.

"AI" more like thinly veiled business cartel on the back of low to no chances of law enforcement and regulation.

WD should run their business as they like. Given the simmering ai crash I'd make sure to get payed upfront. As for the other vendors, this is their chance to pick up market share.

HDD prices have been creeping up for a while now. I noticed this as I was looking to add more storage to my server, checked prices late last year, figured I'd hold off a bit longer, checked again a few weeks ago and they were much higher across the board. Also a lot less stock for higher capacities. Took the plunge, bought enough storage to get me through the next few years.

Glad I did as the drives I bought have continued going up in price. This article just confirms it for me.
