Prices have already risen and they do not drop any more. As you can see year long waits are expected for 30TB+ HDDs. The same applies to RAM and SSDs too, OpenAI plans to buy 40% of all NAND in the world next year, going directly to SK Hynix and Samsung, purchasing the wafers themselves before they are even turned into chips, other AI companies will snap up the rest, there will be nothing left for end users.OpenAI's Stargate project has a $500 Billion budget and they plan to spend all of it.
