The price of a 1TB solid-state drive has increased from 500 yuan to 1,000 yuan.

```htmlGolden Ten Data reported on July 6 that, according to an on-site investigation at Hangzhou Buynow Computer Mall, the price increase of storage chips has fully spread from upstream to consumer terminals, and ordinary consumers are now facing fierce price hikes on memory and storage hard drives. Some retailers said memory and solid-state drives have surged in price, causing some panic and leading to a reluctance to stock too much. According to reports, prices of certain SSDs and memory modules have doubled; the price of a 1TB SSD has risen from 500 yuan to around 1,000 yuan, and the PS5-specific 8TB SSD is selling for nearly 20 thousand yuan, enough to buy three PS5 Pro consoles. This price surge, triggered by AI computing power demand structurally squeezing production capacity, is expected to continue until 2027.```
