What I’m more annoyed about is not picking up HDDs for my NAS last year, I refuse to pay NVMe prices for HDDs.

Wouldn’t it have been cheaper to buy a few smaller ones and a PCIe card?

Then you’re losing pcie lanes, and you have to deal with split storage or software raid which doesn’t always work the best.

Yup, and originally I was also aiming to put together a full SSD NAS, so I wanted to use multiple 4TB sticks for that since it was reasonably priced (at the time) for the amount of storage and speed.
