I’ve only looked at the consumer space and all I’ve noticed is that SSD prices were finally going down after stagnating for years, but then the manufacturers said that prices are too low and they intentionally slowed down production to increase prices, so prices are actually higher than they were a year ago.
Right, over the long term prices go down, but it still greatly annoys me that they jacked up prices in the short term. Thankfully I have no need to purchase any storage and won’t for years.

Sometes the prices go up, but they steadily go down over time.
This chart is really good for seeing storage prices
