Why is the price of these portables going up? Paying more than £50 for 2TB is mad.

Tech is often subject to market forces such as shortages of raw materials, demand and anything to do with the factory where they are made. Memory is even worse than hard drives for roller coaster prices.

Tech prices/availability completely out of control. 10 years from now there will be class actions against companies for price gouging.

This is the same as the one I got in Tesco for £58, but was hard to find, so still great price at the current market values

How does this compare to WD elements ones. Ordered a 2tb one the other day when it was a lightning deal too
