A 30% decrease in price? I'll believe it when I see it.

I got a 240 for that price last month. Well, 240GB for $80 and a $10 newegg gift card. It will happen.

Maybe not the top end ssd like samsung 3d type and such. But the 840s and others sure i can see being cheaper.

Here's hoping that will happen. With the dollar (currency trading) getting stronger I don't know if that will have an effect on pricing.

I see quite a few sales of around @ $100-ish now ... so that's not too big of a leap. Typically the SSD's are running 1/2 the cost for the gigs / ratio now before sales -- here's to a continued drop

Dropped in 2 Samsung 850 EVO 250GBs into a rig this last weekend. They were $109 each. 30% price adjustment is in fact a big deal.

Totally believable! Many of us early adopters paid a premium. Over the last 3-4 years, the prices have steadily dropped. This is a GREAT thing for many who have not tried it yet. SSD makes a major difference! I hope a lot of people give it a try.

Probably never. By the time they go down to 100, inflation will cause 125 dollars to be the new 100.
