Like 2 months ago. I found a bunch of unknown random Chinese brands, wouldn't trust them to sell to companies for upgrades though. The 2230 was either massively inflated cost due to Lenovo branded, or unknown brand.
Lots of reasonable 2230s available today from Micron, Teamgroup, Inland. The nicer ones from Samsung and other reputable brands will be double the price, yes. And even the cheap ones will be more expensive than a standard M.2 SSD. Miniaturization costs money, they're more expensive to make. We'll have to see how WD's prices are, but I assume they'll be higher like Samsung.
For me personally, I don't really care about brand. For my clients, I don't want callbacks from mystery brands like teamgroup...or inland. They really don't sound reliable. That was my issue with finding them.
Oh yeah I wouldn't get cheap brands for clients. But I do buy them for myself (and I make sure they're backed up).
There are definately many more 2230 options 2 months ago. Handheld demand and side demand from the framework 16 (as 1 of its 2 ssd slots is 2230)
Off the top of my head, framework has already been stocking wd 2230s, Micron was already on the market, as well as Sabrent.
I would also think others like Corsair, Teamgroup, kingston and such all now have offerings.
