RE: Increasing Reliability

On windows, this is overkill for what most people do.

Just the way we like it. It's amazing how cheap it's getting over time. You can now get over 1 TB SSD(NVME too) for under $100(though you won't get those speeds). I'm hoping for days where the smallest SSDs start at 1 TB because they get that cheap.

    Yeah... the EVO was 2x the price of the PRO, 2 years ago. 😭

    At work, I deal with enterprise 2 year old SSDs and NVMe's... 8TB and 14TB for the SSD ones... 400GB for the NVMe's (but crazy fas on IOs, around 100k's per level of queue depth almost) which interface with 12Gb/s SAS and they can't reach these sequential throughputs, not even half most likely. So definitely now it's going to get cheaper for general market consumption.

    I am eager to start seeing that 400 TB and above SSDs that got announced (prototype) in 2019. When those reach the enterprise market, this is going to be interesting. Probably on my next HPC cluster.

      400 TB... Holy hell. How much do they cost? And more importantly, how long till they become suitable for consumer purchases? My 256 GB ssd on my laptop will be puny compared to that.
