Framework warns of even more rising RAM and SSD prices through 2026 as memory crisis persists — some reprieve as prices plateau in latest monthly update

Framework warns of continued increases in RAM and SSD prices due to the ongoing global memory crisis, with prices expected to rise through 2026. Despite some stability in pricing recently, customers should anticipate further hikes and volatility. The company has adjusted prices for components like DDR5 memory and SSDs, with higher-capacity drives seeing significant price shifts. Framework is absorbing some of the increased costs but will adjust prices for certain configurations to offset the rest. The company's modular ecosystem, including Storage Expansion Cards, is also affected by rising costs, with warnings of substantial price adjustments later this year.
