I guess SSDs will be cheaper and bigger in capacity in a few years, I won’t be surprise if by 2015 we start seeing 2.5’’ 4TB SSD drives for $200 or less!

With only 9 weeks of 2015 left, and the current 2TB SSDs clocking in at USD750 at the cheaper end, I can’t see 4TB of SSD for $200 happening in the next two months 😃
Would be nice though.

Oh damn, I meant 2017! Short circuit there, sorry.

SSDs will improve their technology and those hiccups will be ironed out; I remember back in 2010 I bought a massive-heavy 3.5’’ USB 2.0 2TB with an extra A/C adapter for $200 and I replaced it a few months ago with a slim-light 2.5’’ USB 3.0 2TB with no A/C requirement for $85. I’m sure we’ll see in a couple of years faster and more reliable SSDs with huge storage capacity under $100! I bet the transfer speeds will definitively benefit heavy video/audio work like restorations.
