Flash Memory Prices Drop

Mark Goldstein | Digital | May 25, 2004 | 0 Comments

An interesting article by Reuters reports that the price of flash memory has recently been drastically cut by Samsung Electronics Co Ltd and Toshiba Corp, who are attempting to prevent new competitors from entering the market. This has in turn resulted in a decrease in compact flash card pricing (found via Digicamera.net).

“The average price of 512-megabit flash chips has tumbled to $9 from a $21.50 peak in October, according to http://www.dramexchange.com. For consumers, that has resulted in bargains such as a 512-megabyte SanDisk memory card reduced to $97.99 from $221.41 at http://www.buy.com.”
