Got an enterprise drive 1.92tb seagate nytro 5350 for 75us on ebay... if you want cheaper drive try find a enterprise ssd if you get luck you can find 4 and 8 tb drives same price as the desktop counterparts but will last forever.

FTA: "Samsung will be able to make drives nearly 50% cheaper than the highest-capacity SSDs on the market today..."

Yeah, they might be able to make them cheaper themselves, but they are NOT pricing it 50% cheaper to the market.

If they really can produce the capacity that much cheaper, it would make all the sense in the world to give slightly more capacity and speed per dollar than the competition and capture all the market volume while still having slightly better margins . Samsung can produce a TON of flash if they can sell it all.

Still waiting for Samsung to actually release a SSD with V9 TLC flash. Supposedly production began in April '24, and this QLC drive was supposed to begin this half. The TLC version should be the higher performing one, and I'm waiting to see the actual product hit the reg channels.
