Price of SSDs Dropping Fast

From Laptop Mag -

As with most any other technological product, SSDs are not immune to price drops. However, unlike most other products, its price drop in the past year has been huge. Barely a year ago, a 32GB Samsung SSD cost well over $800. But for the past few months, slower 32GB drives have been going for $100, with 64GB sometimes dipping below $200. And just recently, the Intel X-25M, arguably the fastest SSD today, dropped down to $369 after its wholesale cost per thousand units was reduced to $390.

With this latest price drop, SSDs are now at the cusp of mainstream adoption, the projected sweet spot being 120GB for under $250.
