According to speculation Intel is planning price cuts on its SSDs in order to remain competitive. The cuts are expected to be introduced in August and will be on their consumer SSD ranges. Prices will be slashed as much as 37% across the SSD 320, SSD 330, and SSD 520 series.
In the 320 series Intel will be cutting the prices of the 300GB and 600GB models. Each of the two are available in four packages, spanning two form-factors: 2.5-inch 9.5 mm-thick, and 2.5-inch 7 mm-thick. Since consumers need a bit more encouragement to buy the higher capacity more expensive SSDs Intel is cutting the 300GB from US $499 to $444, an 11% cut, and the 600GB from $1,039 to $859, an 18% cut. These are based on OEM price cuts, retail versions are $20 more expensive.
The entire 520 series is set for price cuts too:
Finally, Intel’s newest mainstream line of SSDs, the 330 series, is also set for a bunch of price cuts:
All prices mentioned above are in USD, excluding taxes, and the OEM prices are price-per-unit in multi-unit quantities. Intel desperately needed these price cuts as other leading SSD competitors had been cutting prices to the point where Intel had started to look uncompetitive to consumers. So if you’re in the market for an Intel SSD, you may want to hold out until August.
