RAM And SSDs Sell For Thousands Of Dollars At Micro Center Even As Inventory Remains Full

Micro Center stores appear well stocked with SSDs and DDR5 RAM, but prices have climbed sharply.

A 2 TB Samsung 9100 Pro SSD was listed at $679, while a 2 TB WD_Black SN8100 reached $699.

A 128 GB Corsair DDR5 kit was priced at $4,199, far above typical PC component levels.

The report shows that volatile memory and storage markets can drive extreme consumer prices even without obvious shortages.
