Those are awesome lol what would be a good system to run them in?
Comment on Recommendations for an all-SSD home server?

Assume an unlimited budget for now, I just want to know what’s out there.
I mean, if you’re willing to pay the price of a car per SSD they go up to at least 122TB (e.g. Solidigm SBFPF2BV0P12001 D5-P5336 – $16K~$20K depending on supplier from a quick search) density per drive…
I don’t actually recommend that for personal use, but since you were curious about what’s out there, there’s some absolutely crazy shit in enterprise server gear if you have deep enough pockets.

It looks like the connector is U.2 so I’d look for motherboards that indicate support for that explicitly. From a quick search, it looks like SuperMicro makes some. This is getting out of my area of expertise though; I just know the crazy drives exist…

For that kind of money, I would expect the SSD drive to be able to provide some other qualities beyond technical things like capacity/bandwidth/latency.
Some very good qualities.

For that kind of money, I would expect breakfast and a blowie every morning.

For the price of the car I would expect the SSD drive to grow wheels and be able to actually drive it

What you get is something with an acceptable warranty and maybe some support.
What you then realize is what you DON’T have on your consumer gear.

Exceptional qualities that usually go for a high price.
