I was just looking for a HDD upgrade for my homelab. I remembered last two times I bought 4TB Ironwolf for around 100€ each. I expected 6TB to be around that price level nowadays, but then I couldn't believe my eyes. Still 100€ for 4TB???

I had a look in my emails and found this:

01.09.2022|ST4000VN008|95,49€

21.03.2023|ST4000VN006|83,95€

05.10.2024|ST4000VN006|93,74€

What the fuck is going on here? That's +11,6% in half a year! Do you think we should hoard some drives for resale instead of data?
