Pablo Escobar used to announce the price of cocaine on the radio every day, but you will not know even the estimate for an SSD :-)
Looking forward to have this in my homelab in 10 years.
SSD prices have somewhat been sticky & not coming down for some reason...

Why cant we get any of the new nice connectors on consumer hardware? The fact that you will have to get old enterprise hardware to get ECC and any kind of pcie drive connections apart from M2 is stupid.
I see they list an MTTF of 2.5 million device hours. That works out at ~285 years - is that really correct? (I'm not really familiar with what's considered normal for devices of this class)
Apple must be rubbing their hands and licking their lips thinking about the markups from their base models.
i am really excited to wait 5 years to get one from ebay

Where can I read about the storage drives used at Netflix?
I know there’s info on the Gbps they push, and using AMD chips, and FreeBSD.
But I haven’t read anything about their storage setup.
And then everything is throttled by single-threaded kswapd in linux which is not fast enough to reclaim memory pages..
so how much do these bad boys cost
Hopefully that should be enough for the swap file while Chrome is running.
What’s new here?

Nice to see the product brief break down the write endurance rating by workload. They really want you to use at least 16kB block sizes with this drive. NAND page sizes have been larger than 4kB for quite a while now, but most SSDs still put significant effort into handling 4kB IO operations well. This market segment of server drives optimized for capacity over performance or endurance is where vendors are most willing to be up front about how your workload really should be appropriate for the drive.
