- SSDs have shot up in price over the past month and a half
- Tom's Hardware compared the cost of some top-end SSDs against gold in terms of their relative weight
- It turns out that high-end 8TB SSDs are, on average, worth more than gold now by weight – and a few 4TB models are, too
If you've ever wondered whether SSDs are more valuable than gold, gram-for-gram, in weight terms – and some folks have, following price inflation driven by the memory crisis – the answer is, rather incredibly, yes, for capacious high-end drives, anyway.
