According to Jiemian, under the surge of storage chip prices, the cost pressure in the industry is being passed on to end consumers.

On June 17 local time, SanDisk launched an SSD model named Optimus GX PRO 850P on its official website. This SSD is officially authorized by Sony and exclusively designed for PS5 and PS5 Pro expansion, featuring a top configuration with 8TB capacity. The original price on the official website is $3,699.99, and even after discounts, it still costs as much as $2,959.99 (approximately 20,000 RMB).For comparison, the standard 2TB PS5 Pro from Sony is currently priced at only $899 in the US market. The price of a single top-tier SanDisk SSD is enough to buy three complete gaming consoles, with the remaining funds sufficient to cover the cost of a full set of gaming accessories. The upside-down pricing of accessories has become the most tangible example of the epic price surge in storage chips on the consumer end this time.
