    I’m tempted to just say "good, less WD drives around ". But there aren’t a lot, if any, good manufacturers left. What we actually get is probably more Seagate, which is even worse.

        After the pop there will be plenty of 2nd hand components that were never used or are slightly used.

          Unfortunately none of it will be RAM because all the fabs are making HBM, not DRAM.

            I think hbm is not consumer tech cause it’s expensive, otherwise it’s just superior. I assume if the market is flooded with the stuff there will be a drive for compatible components
