4 TB SSDs are more expensive because the cheapest SSD lines top out at 2 TB.
Crucial MX300 (up to 2 TB): $268/TB
Mushkin Reactor TC (up to 2 TB): $275/TB
Samsung 850 Evo (up to 4 TB): $374/TB

I only need one drive. $549 is not bad. Not planning on any travel for a few months, so I can hold out to see if prices fall on the 4TB drives or if my laptop dies, which would be just my luck... At least for the moment, it's running great and not giving any hints of impending failure.

That said, my job gives me infinite cloud space, so I have a lot of potential room there.
