The #AI fever is having a huge impact on consumer #electronics.

Last February I purchased a 4TB Western Digital Black SN850X from Newegg to put in my desktop PC that I use for all kinds of work related tasks; video editing, virtual machines, etc. At that time it cost $280 USD.

Today, that exact same drive, also from Newegg and listed at the same item page (I just clicked the link from my receipt) is now $630. That's a 2.25x increase in price over the course of one year.
