Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead
iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoI mean, Crucial is just the name that Micron puts on the memory they want to sell to consumers. So this story is basically just, “Micron no longer wants to sell to consumers”.

When the shit hits the fan and they come back to consumers, we should just buy from anyone but them, on principle alone.

So Samsung or SK Hynix. Because there are only 3 real players in the market :/

Well it turns out that Samsung and SK Hynix also sold out to Altman. Literally whose RAM we gonna buy now? There were only 3 major manufacturers in the first place.
