There’s no doubt that SSDs are a huge upgrade over\u00a0platter-based hard drives in terms of overall performance they deliver to a system. As more and more users begin to discover the wide range of benefits to using flash storage<\/strong> from performance to reliability, demand has seen a significant spike.<\/p>\n

More consumers seeing greater benefits from their storage is always a great thing. However, the issue is that seasonal sales increases, greater awareness of benefits by consumers, lower costs compared to HDDs since last year, and a tighter supply of NAND flash throughout the industry (Toshiba, for example,\u00a0reduced their NAND production by 30% last July<\/a>) have created delays for all SSD manufacturers.<\/p>\n

When delays do<\/em> happen, we at OWC will always do our best to keep pace and keep our popular line of SSDs<\/a> in stock and our website up to date with ETAs on when you can expect your order to ship. As for current delays, it is expected that the overall SSD supply situation should be normal by the middle of January. However, many of our Mercury brand SSDs currently showing pending on the site should be in good supply starting middle of this week through next week.<\/p>\n

Of course, we will be sure to keep you updated<\/strong>\u00a0with any additional dates and more information as it becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
