NAND FLASH PRICE TRACKER · $/TB

NAND flash prices — live NAND and SSD price tracker

Enterprise SSD and consumer NVMe levels, tracked on a comparable dollars-per-terabyte basis.

Quick answer: as of 2026-10-12, Enterprise SSD 30.72TB QLC is $4,636.00 USD / drive, +11.35% over 30 days and +165.00% year over year. Across the 26 contracts tracked on this page the basket is +7.13% over 30 days and +185.73% year over year.

NAND is the storage half of the memory market and the second bill AI datacenters pay: training clusters need petabytes of high-capacity enterprise SSD alongside their HBM. This page tracks enterprise and consumer drives together so you can see whether the storage market is following DRAM higher or diverging from it.

    24 Sep spot board: DDR5 16Gb reaches $57.667 while DDR4 16Gb slips to $83.784

    DDR5 16Gb 4800/5600 averaged $57.667 (+0.29% session) and eTT reached $25.500 (+0.79%). DDR4 diverged: 8Gb 3200 averaged $46.107 (+0.47%), while 16Gb 3200 fell 0.70% to $83.784. These are session changes on the published board, not 30-day returns.

    512Gb TLC NAND slips to $20.083 as consumer buying stays weak

    The 512Gb TLC wafer spot reference fell another 0.31% to $20.083 on 14 September after a 2.71% weekly decline to $20.146. Consumer purchasing remains cautious even while enterprise SSD demand keeps contract pricing elevated.

    Spot board, 1 Sep: DDR5 16Gb $54.08, DDR4 16Gb $92.02, DDR4 8Gb $44.54 — all up under half a percent

    The 1 September session closed with DDR5 16Gb 4800/5600 at a $54.083 average (+0.31%), DDR4 16Gb 3200 at $92.024 (+0.27%) and DDR4 8Gb 3200 at $44.544 (+0.40%). Every line is still green, but the daily session moves are now fractions of a percent rather than the multi-point jumps of June and July. The spread is the story: DDR4 16Gb printed a $117.00 high against a $42.20 low in the same session.

FAQ

What are NAND flash prices today?
The table above tracks enterprise SSD and consumer NVMe levels with 30-day and year-over-year change. NAND is priced per gigabyte at the die level and per drive at the shelf, so the $/TB view is the cleanest way to compare across capacities.
Are NAND prices rising like DRAM?
NAND and DRAM are separate markets with separate fabs, but they share customers and capex budgets. AI datacenter storage demand for high-capacity enterprise SSDs has tightened the NAND market, though NAND has historically been more prone to oversupply corrections than DRAM.
What is the difference between NAND flash and DRAM?
NAND is non-volatile storage — it keeps data with the power off and is used in SSDs. DRAM is volatile working memory that the CPU or accelerator reads and writes directly. AI training needs both: HBM and DDR5 for working memory, high-capacity NAND for the datasets and checkpoints.
Is there a NAND spot price chart?
Yes — every row links to a chart running 30 days to 5 years, and the price explorer at the top of this page plots NAND, enterprise SSD and consumer NVMe together on a $/TB basis. NAND wafer and die levels move on broker surveys, while drive prices settle on contracts, so the two lines diverge before they converge again.
Where does this NAND price data come from?
Contract settlements, broker boards, supplier filings and retail trackers, each flagged reported, derived or estimate with a source link. The methodology page lists the full ranked source set.
