How much would that cost? The 4 TB drives I bought from them remained $500 for years, so I’m not sure even corporations could afford that shit.
Probably tens of thousands of dollars and only available to enterprise.
That being said, eventually SSD sizes (even for consumers) will start approaching a single PB (at first). The HDD in my first PC was 1.5 GB, this was ~1997. These days even entry level smartphones go for ~$150 and tend to have around 64 GB storage.
I realize prices go down eventually but I specifically mentioned the example of the 4TB SSDs. I did not specify the time period but last I checked it has been 3 years and those prices hadn’t gone down a dollar
SN850X 4TB is $275 on partpicker so it looks like prices have almost halved. Although I do agree that price/tb hasn’t been decreasing last enough
Yeah, I saw similar drops the other day when I checked. It may have been the pandemic keeping them from dropping for a while.
