Even with SSD being significantly cheaper than before... It would still be way to costy. With 4TB of SSD you could possibly even buy a NVidia Titan Z GPU

With 4TB of SSD you could possibly even buy a NVidia Titan Z GPU So exactly what would you need 4 TB SSD storage for? Stop storing so many "movies". 500GB would be perfect I assume to make it your main drive. This is enough (!) room for the OS and most programs. Then a 1-2TB second HDD would do for anything else. The prices still have to come down if you ask me.

"$X for Y GB" is absolutely senseless statement.
C'mon, stop thinking about volume/price ratio, it doesn't mean anything. There are a lot of different flash and buffer memory types, controllers and firmware developers. Chip makers and device vendors want to have unlimited queue of stupid customers who will buy any shit without paying any attention to hardware or software details. Don't let them to fool you.

Is that like punch cards will always be cheaper than magnetic storage tapes? Is that like storage tapes will always be cheaper than magnetic disks?

With the same "bloat" programs on startup, it's like 5-6 times faster on boot and the difference is very (!) noticeable. I would upgrade my Computer right now if I had the money.

The prices still have to come down if you ask me. Many data science & statistic stuff and others generates a ton of data, that will need to be accessed at a fast speed. So there is demand for the SSD high capacity disks, even if they are more expensive
