[Hardware] Are SSD manufacturers agreeing to a price increase?

[Mr.Hacker]

Currently, the manufacture of chips for RAM and SSD memory is concentrated in a handful of companies. Although it has never been fully demonstrated, on more than one occasion they would have agreed on prices or methods to mani[CENSORED]te the market. It seems that Samsung and SK Hynix agree to reduce the manufacture of memories for SSDs and raise prices.

 

 

To give us an idea, currently there are losses in the sales of these memories. They are sold below cost in some cases, which is unfeasible. This forces a cut in production that generates an immediate price rise. Note that SK Hynix, Micron, Westen Digital, Samsung and Kioxia (formerly Toshiba) have cut their memory production for SSDs. These are the leading manufacturers of solid storage units. So in the coming months we should see price increases or, at the very least, a slowdown in price declines.
