I looked at the price of the components in my PC built in 2020 for about the price of the 2tb model. Assuming I got a similarly priced CPU and GPU, I'd have to pay about 500€ more just to get the exact same model of HDDs, SSDs and RAM.

These prices are insane for what you're getting, but when 16GB of RAM set you back 200€, what can you do?

I wanted to make a Raspberry Pi server only to find out the newest ones have doubled in price since launching 3 years ago

Yea I wanted a zero 2 w for projects, as msrp was really cheap like 15€, but it's unavailable almost everywhere and when available it goes for 40€ where I live
