when will ssd prices drop?

if its possible for you to predict or estimate, when do you think the pricetags on SSDs will slim down a bit? they are a tad bit expensive for me, but in the near future, i would love to get my hands on one of these :(

yes according to my crystal ball, they should be dropping in price sometime in may 2011. Be patient

I want one too, hopefully the ones with 500mbps read and write would be nice but i want 250gb for a lot less than they are now.

every time the price drop a better one come out, i was going to buy the intel X-25 then the 510 series came out, when i was thinking about buying 510, the vertex 3 came out, i think intel has one more to bringout before the year is over,

That's pretty much the only way things can work in the consumer world.

SSD prices have been dropping... as with pretty much all computer parts :Pdeathxxshark

This, I think that by the end of the year, beginning of next year, SSD's will drop in price enough to where the normal consumer can get a decent sized one.

I think about 2 years before we really start to see them in a ton of machines.

I am going to have one in my next rig, along with a lot of RAM, and a very powerful CPU... Games I doubt would benefit from an SSD drive, but since I make music, and streaming audio back and fourth with my HDD, a SSD would shine in something like that... So it would actually be worth it to me to have one.

Someone should tell intel that >.>, they have the most idiotic cpu pricings sometimes.
