The 4TB M.2 SSD market in 2026 is experiencing a structural shift, characterized by severe NAND flash shortages and significant price hikes. Driven primarily by AI data center demand, prices for consumer 4TB models have surged, with flagship drives like the Samsung 990 Pro retailing around $975, a stark contrast to historical lows. While 2TB remains a sweet spot for many, 4TB is increasingly sought after by professionals and enthusiasts, despite the "2026 SSD Price Crisis" which has seen contract prices rise by 85-90% in the first quarter alone.

I have compiled a list of 4TB M.2 NVMe SSDs including both PCIe 4.0 and emerging PCIe 5.0 options, with detailed specs, pricing ranges, and supplier information to help you navigate this volatile market. The following files provide a comprehensive overview of available products and sourcing options.

SSD Prices 2020-2026: Price History & 2026 Forecast

storagediskprices.com

Source: TrendForce, November-December 2025 reports · Here's what popular SSDs cost now versus their 2023 lows (verified from current Amazon pricing): Source: Amazon current pricing, February 2026. Price ranges reflect multiple seller listings. Larger capacity drives have historically offered better value per terabyte, but this relationship is changing during the shortage. Based on current Amazon pricing: Observation: High-capacity drives (4TB+) have experienced smaller relative increases because enterprise demand focuses on maximum capacity. For consumers, 4TB and 8TB SSDs now offer the best value per terabyte - a reversal from typical patterns. Understanding the relationship between raw NAND flash prices and finished SSD prices helps predict future trends: In 2026, HDDs cost approximately $12-15 per TB versus $90-110 per TB for SSDs - a 7-8x premium for SSDs. However, HDDs are also experiencing shortages due to AI demand, with enterprise drives backordered 52+ weeks. For pure $/TB value, HDDs remain significantly cheaper, but availability is increasingly limited. 4TB drives currently offer the best $/TB value for most consumers. As of February 2026, popular 1TB SSDs like the Samsung 990 Pro cost $218 and the Crucial MX500 hits $195-250 - up 200-400% from 2023 lows. TrendForce forecasts another 40%+ increase in Q1 2026 due to AI-driven NAND shortages. The golden era of cheap SSDs appears to be over. If you bought an SSD in 2023, congratulations - you timed the market perfectly.

When Will SSD Prices Go Down? Q3–Q4 2026 Outlook

Upgrade your data storage. From ultra-fast gaming SSDs to stylish RGB memory and portable USB storage - find the perfect solution for your needs. Kingston later reported that NAND wafer costs had risen 246% by December, with 70% of that increase concentrated in just the final 60 days of the year. The market was already tightening before 2026 even began. TrendForce originally projected NAND Flash contract prices would rise 33–38% QoQ in Q1. This is arguably the single most important supply-side variable to watch through the rest of 2026 and into 2027. If you're waiting for the right moment to buy, here are the specific, observable signals that would indicate the market is genuinely turning — not just experiencing a temporary promotional dip: ... TrendForce reports a quarter with flat or negative NAND contract price movement — the first such quarter since 2024 would be a significant shift. Client SSDs saw even steeper increases — at least 40% QoQ, the largest rise among all NAND product categories. TrendForce explicitly noted that 1Q26 order volumes "greatly surpassed suppliers' production capacity." The real-world impact was immediate. Dell and Lenovo began downgrading SSD capacities in their 2026 laptop lineups to control BOM costs.

To understand the extent of the thing, you have to look at the data of TrendForce , the reference body on memory component prices. And there, it stings. According to their reports published at the end of March 2026, here is the evolution of contractual prices for NAND Flash — the component that represents about 90% of the manufacturing cost of an SSD : Not before the end of 2027 at the earliest, according to TrendForce. The new NAND production plants will not be operational before this date, and the AI demand continues to grow. Some analysts believe that the bullish cycle could last until 2028 or beyond. If you need it, yes. Prices in Q2 2026 (April-June) are expected to rise by another 70-75%. Waiting will not help in the short term. Prefer Gen4 SSDs (better value for money than Gen5) and keep an eye on flash sales on Amazon and French sites like LDLC or TopAchat. SSD Gen4 rather than Gen5 — the price difference has become absurd while the gaming performance difference is almost zero · The return of the HDD for mass storage — yes, that's where we're at. A 4TB HDD remains at 80-100€ and it's enough to store your less played games. According to Gamers Nexus, SATA SSDs have increased by about 75% compared to 115% for NVMe. They use the same NAND Flash, so the increase is inevitable, but since profit margins are already lower, manufacturers are absorbing a small part of the increase. For mass storage (games you rarely play, movies, backups), yes, it has become a sensible option again. A 4TB HDD for 80-100€ remains unbeatable in cost per GB.
