If this doesn't "scream" just how badly Intel were ripping us off in the past, nothing does. CPUs like this were over the 20G mark previously Competition is so, very important. Intel Xeon 8176M Octacosa-core (28 Core) 2.10 GHz Socket 3647 - 14 nm - 165 W sells for $35,149.00

They are blaming Chineese new year? Seriously? That's got to be the biggest amount of time off ever! lol What is it? Like 3 months of not working or something? lol

That's concerning. The amount of UV-C you need to be effective at killing virus cell membranes is about 20,000 joules per metre squared, and you probably aren’t going to get that in an e-Bay type hand-held device, however, a fixed high power bulb like used in hospital cleaning is dangerous...

You shouldn't store anything you want to keep on flash memory. It all has a tendency to go bad (bit rot) if not plugged in, in as little as two weeks, you can start to lose your data in corruption. A HDD is still superior for storage, yet not perfect. Magnetism will deteriorate over time...

What about using far-UVC light at 222 nanometers ?? Recent studies have been shown Far-UVC to be as efficient as conventional germicidal UV light in killing microorganisms while also suggesting that these wavelengths do not cause the human health issues associated with direct exposure to...

HBM memory is faster, great however it's set right next to the GPU/CPU. The hottest part of the computer. When it fails, not only do you need to replace the memory, you have to replace the GPU/CPU as well. This is much more expensive than just buying new RAM or having your card re-worked...

Is there another QLC comparison/comparable drive, other than Samsung?

What do you mean by "at what cost" Cost is not the primary reasoning here. The first real Super Computers required liquid nitrogen cooling. Who puts that kind of money into a computer building's cooling requirements? It's No.1 in compute. Is it extravagant? yes, who cares! No.1 Intel used to...
