      They'll be up for a while, since the factories that make them are out of commission indefinitely.

              Yeah old news indeed, however it still sucks.
              It is expected that prices will be/stay up at least several months and will be harder to get, especially enterprise drives.

              Luckily we refilled our stock a month ago with about 500 drives

                Prices went up here even before the local stock was exhausted. There's a lot of distributors and retail shops making a quick buck from this.
