While the flooding in Thailand is not getting any better, the technology is greatly affected, notably with hard drive pricings going through the roof.
With prices getting so high, if it keeps up, we may see ourselves saving money by buying SSDs instead, although we hope that won’t be the case, and as a matter of fact, everyone was hoping for the price to rebound.
Unfortunately, we are wrong, very wrong, as said Seagate CEO Stephen Luczo during a talk with Bloomberg, he even describes estimates of a return to “pre-flood” production level as “nonsense.” He also added:
