    Was that a 2280 M.2 drive?

    That’s what makes this bleeding edge since those drives are so tiny. 15tb in a 2.5" drive is nothing special.

      Fair enough it was a 2.5 nvme but 8tb m2 2280 disks have been on the market for literal years. You could get them in PCIe gen 3 …

      The reason it costs so much is because the chip industry is limiting supply again again to drive prices up after a few years of over producing. Not because there is something fancy in this drive.
