No price was mentioned. I guess it's one of those things were if you have to ask for the price, this product isn't for you.

The comments in the article discuss the pricing.

How can you review something across three pages without even mentioning even a ballpark figure for the price!?
Because it’s nearly $8000 and the terms of the review agreement probably stipulate they’re not allowed to share that.
I picked up one of these in December 2023 for $3700. Now that the cost of NAND has spiked they seem to be around $6400.

Looking into it a bit myself, it seems you can pick up 30TB and 15TB drives for around ~$106/TB which doesn't really seem that bad. It's just over twice the price (per TB) of the cheapest consumer grade SSDs I could find.

That just looks wrong to me.

I want to be able to control my risk. 61 tb in one disk sounds just wrong to me.

Why is no one building and providing case + select your controller chip + flash chips?

In worst case pre soldered with an easy resolder setup for companies big enough to do it themselves, easy enough for hobbists to fix it themselves.

Then make 'filesystem/storagesystem' system aware so it can move files to certain chips or let the controller do it for you.

Would be a great base layer.
