RAM! (And NAND SSDs too now, probably...)

When I was looking in October, I hadn't bought hardware for the better part of a decade, and I saw all these older posts on forums for DDR4 at $1/GB, but the lowest I could find was at least $2/GB used. These days? HAH!

If I had a decent sales channel I might be speculating on DDR4/DDR5 RAM and holding it because I expect prices to climb even higher in the coming months.

I don't remember DDR4 ever hitting $1/GB. Was I not shopping in the right places? IIRC DDR3 settled in at $1/GB quite a long time ago and recycled datacenter DDR4 was maybe ballpark $2.50/GB at some point.
