In reply to Emma Frost @ RabattCode Pro. The memory and storage crisis will not happen for too long. Once the AI bubble bursts (hopefully by 2028), prices for these will basically crash down back to normal prices or even be cheaper then how they were in 2024. Same with the GPU crisis during 2021, people thought that this will happen for a long time, but then during mid-2022, prices for GPUs unexpectedly crashed down as well.

Need to tell you something important about this Txbench. Although you said to simply click on its title for a “free copy”, when I clicked on it, this website appears not to work anymore or maybe it is the wrong link. In fact a couple times when I tried, this website even redirected me to a tech support scam and scareware link where I got a false warning that my “Windows system is damaged”, and that I had to call a fake phone number to fix it. It even wanted to download some files. I completely blocked it though and pressed Alt + F4, but other users who might not know many think their system got infected. Because of this, may you please fix the link, or maybe upload a copy of Txbench somewhere else, as Txbench is very useful for even secure erasing SSDs and viewing detailed SMART information status. I could not find any other benchmark utility that could do what Txbench does. Even if you can not though, please still remove the clickable link for Txbench as this website might mislead others to a false scareware website. Thank you so much!

In reply to Emma Frost @ RabattCode Pro. NAND is a cyclical market. We are in a boom, but that boom-- and it's associated high pricing, is showing cracks. Demand will diminish and pricing will return to normal. I bought the sn850x 4TB for $226 USD last year, that might never be the case again, but $379 seems like a reasonable price floor , instead of the current price of $599

Impressive review of a powerful Gen5 SSD with massive capacity and speed. Do you think 8TB NVMe drives will become more affordable enough for everyday users in the future?
