Why my Video Cameras and Digital Cameras really need USB 3.0 - Part 4-April 10, 2013 |
So here’s the projected retail price of a 256GB SSD with fast flash inside it
What this tells you/me is that the same SSD Crucial drive I bought from Amazon in February 2013 will drop in Retail Price to $18-40. Remember, since you’ve read the other 3 articles, this means you can now take this super fast flash memory and drop it into a digital camera (or mobilephone or tablet) for much less than this. And if you are Apple, if you charge more tha $18-40, you can increase your margin as well. If the margin on flash memory in this case is between 30-50%, with this retail pricing, then increasing the price of your product by 40-200 bucks (as some fruit company does) gets you a huge margin.
