I think we should focus more on their will to kill people than on the future scarcity of disks...

Yeah if SK gets nuked to the extent that they can't produce chips anymore, I think the world has bigger fish to fry.

Speaks volumes to the need for diversifying critical infra.

I was reading an article about how ssd prices were thing to go up this year because of supply issues unrelated to this. Why do I get the feeling they are just coming up with excuses to price gouge?
