Frequent readers of the blog will know that we have had to make selective price increases on the products most affected by the steep rises in the cost of memory over the past two years. Other businesses in the sector have had to do likewise, and we continue to do everything we can to minimise the costs passed on to our customers, including qualifying alternative parts to give us more flexibility in sourcing. Unfortunately, a lack of alternative supply for 16GB DRAM, compounded by other ongoing component shortages, means we now need to make further price increases on some of our highest-density products.
