when will ssd prices drop
IHS is projecting SSDs with average capacity of 190GB to be priced at $110 by the end of this year, dropping to $104 for a 243GB drive by the end of next year. SSD prices will be $89 for 275GB by 2016, $73 for 310GB in 2017 and $60 for 345GB in 2018. The laptop SSD price drop will come as more people move from hard drives to SSDs, which are faster and draw less power, Zhang said.
