You can buy a Crucial 1TB SSD for $135 and replace it yourself. But Apple solders their SSDs in, so nope, you can’t do that. Gotta pay $800 if you want it.

A 1TB SATA SSD, bottlenecked at 6Gb/s. If you're comparing apples to apples, at least use the NVMe 970 Pros which have comparative performance.

Well that’s still substantially cheaper buying on its own, you get my point lol.
Yeah! Apple's markup is ridiculous. More than double the cost of the equivalently performing NVMe storage.
Massive RAM prices I can understand as that's just a historical meme at this point. But the storage markup is painful to swallow.

Not sure why anyone would even consider the trashcan Mac Pro (even with this price reduction for RAM) when even the current 5K iMac comes with a 9th generation Intel Core i9-9900K 8-core CPU that smokes it. Even the Vega 48 should destroy whatever GPU it has (don't care to check).

Oh Jesus. This is not a price drop. This is somebody in Operations performing a tidy-up on the BOM.

So the price of the upgrades that people would actually buy remain unchanged. Got it.
