Gamers Treat SSDs Like Skateboards

how gamers treated SSDs when 1 terabyte was $70

A hand uses an M.2 SSD as a tiny skateboard, rolling and pushing it across a desk beneath a PC monitoring display. The joke exaggerates how precious expensive SSDs were when 1 terabyte cost $70, turning a valuable computer component into a toy. The clip is set to Waterflame’s energetic electronic/chiptune track “ClutterFunk,” whose upbeat momentum makes the reckless treatment feel like a dramatic skateboarding stunt.
