I've recently discovered that SSD and RAM prices have surged, and as a video editor, I'm wondering if it's the right time to purchase additional SSDs. I typically buy a 1TB SSD now and then, but seeing the prices triple is a bit alarming. Is it better to buy now or wait for prices to lower?

I bought a Samsung T7 shield SSD just a few weeks ago for around £116, and now it’s shot up to £160. It might be wise to hold off for a bit since I expect prices to dip again.
Honestly, the best time to purchase SSDs was a while back. That said, it's still likely better to buy now than to wait because prices might continue to rise.
If you’re a professional video editor, consider increasing your service fees to offset the cost. That’s a common strategy many businesses are using right now.
As an alternative, think about getting a large HDD to store less urgent files. I'd suggest buying two for redundancy. Plus, make sure to back up critical data to the cloud.
