$29 was the rock bottom price for 1TB SSDs in 2023. And it was for Solidigm P41 Plus

At $32, I'd buy at least two, although I'd prefer a 2TB for $64.

I trust Huawei more than many well known US companies ;D if they made 8TB model at that price per TB I'd be all over it!

It's QLC and lacks a DRAM cache. I'm sure it's fast sequentially until it's pSLC runs out then it probably falls off a cliff. Also, no mention of IOPS is suspicioud as random reads/writes are what matters.

if it comes with any native call home features

Oh c'mon, don't you want to let Xi Jinping see your XXX folder you hid and renamed to something totally normal sounding?!? 😏

1,000,000 4K IOPS write
4,400 TBW endurance for 4TB model
presumably that is 1,100TBW for the 1TB model.

But not in *this* article. It would be unwise to think the specs are the same until it is reviewed. At that price I would be cautious. Maybe it is a great deal. I will not be the first buyer though.

okay then, you do you.

It is justnlist of specs, as any others dramless qlc performance will be good enough until cache is saturated. After that it fall below HDD, probably :/
