Prices for hard drives and SSDs have always been dropping, so that's nothing new. What I find interesting is the price difference between an HDD and an SSD. For about $60, I can get a 2TB HDD or a 500GB SSD. Consider the construction of each. That hard drive has lots of hardware - platters, magnets, wiring, circuit boards, etc. The SSD has nothing but a couple of circuit boards. I wonder how much of the price difference is because of demand for the SSD.
