Are there any gaming advantages to W10 besides DX 12?

Didn't think so, but I didn't want my prejudice against W10 to blind me to any advantages that may benefit me. So I can just update my W10 on the 120 GB drive to current and pull out the drive and toss it in a drawer, or wipe the drive and sell it. Seems they're getting pricey at the moment. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA85V3R92251 $85 for a 120 GB Adata SSD. Wow.
Which reminds me-what's the deal with HDD prices? I know about the NAND issue with RAM and SSDs, but HDD prices seem to have followed the upward trend, and that doesn't make sense.

Greed? Probably a supply and demand thing. HDD demand has gone down with the SSD prices, now there is more demand due to SSD prices rising.

They probably want to maximize profit (like Blue said) but more importantly an SSD seems a better bang for buck option when HDD move up in price. Not to mention OEM are probably buying up all kinds of parts for Kaby and Ryzen builds to sell on the mass market ( OEMs probably raked HDD manufacturers over the coals and regular consumers have to make up for the losses)
