Thoughts on a “HDD shortage” from an industry insider

My sample size of 1 shows little to no move, although I wasn't looking at drives as large as you.

In my case I was having my eyes on 5 TB 2.5" drives. I don't need them, I'd just maybe like them, so I haven't pulled the trigger, but I have them set aside on Amazon France. The price has stayed within a few euros of 110 € for the last 2-3 months.

My advice would be to decide today if you want them or not. They are not going to get cheaper, and could get significantly more expensive in days.

Same here for the same product, but in Germany.
