It's wild how cheap SSDs and ram are right now. It's so tempting to upgrade both on my main PC.
What’s stopping you?
The absence of a bottleneck.
Truth.
Mainly my current setup is pretty decent and a meaningful upgrade would be a few hundred dollars even at current amazing prices.
With that said, I have taken advantage of the amazing prices in my homelab.
32 gb ram and 1tb Samsung 980 Evo gen 4 nvme for $120 is insanity compared to like 2 years ago.
Doing it on Black Friday is even more tempting
