I feel like the $190 they want for the Pi 4/microSD version would’ve been a reasonable price for the Pi 5/NVME version.

Not sure if this is allowed, but I had to see if this was true, and also if it was expensive- it isn’t!

That’s a shockingly bad price, considering the storage. You could put this together yourself for less than half that price. Maybe even a quarter of the price, if you grab used stuff from ebay.

That may be true; but not everyone knows how to.

The people this sort of device is targeted to either already know how to do something like this, or they’re the sort of people who would be eager to follow one of the many guides online. The prepper community is also a DIY community, by nature.

I just purchased 18 TB of surplus disks for 200 CAD, the price there doesn’t seem that good to me.
