Can't wait for Lexar to enter the market
I can't justify $800. That's as much as the giant Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon and I can't bring myself to buy that, either.
It's probably worth the price if you need such a large amount of storage on SDD.
That being said, it's pretty wild to see SSDs hit 8TB.
Datacenter SSDs have been at 32TB+ for a couple years now. One company even makes 100TB SSDs
I don't see how. When 4TB M.2's are priced at under $300, this product only appeals to people with one or two M.2 drive slots. It is still way overpriced.
Using more than 2 m.2 slots typically means losing bandwidth for your GPU. For a higher end system that can be a pretty decent hit to performance.
I got my 4 TB drive for under $200. Twice the price per giggle is outrageous.
