I mean it's a small factor, on top of chinese new year, and increased demand from flash storage in other markets too (phones, game consoles, etc).
Right now the only components I've noticed significant increases in prices are storage and power supplies, but there's also delay before price increases make it to the end user. That being said I don't think it's going to be astronomical changes, but I think we've already seen the lowest prices we will have for at least a few months.

What small factor? This happened in two more situations, once with hdd's when they quadrupled in price, once with ram when prices were again more than 2-3 times as they used to be. This time we are talking about a whole country, not just a flooded factory.
