Drives with 1, 2, and 4 TBs storage space are now around 25% cheaper, with the average price for GB around 6 cents. High-performance SSDs (like those based on the high-speed PCIe 4.0 interface) are a bit more expensive, while SATA and PCIe 3.0 drives are even cheaper (around 4 cents for a GB). This makes a terabyte on SSD almost as cheap as a terabyte on HDD, which is an exceptional case in history.
