Last part that I need is for SSDs to come down in price to where ~80TB isn't too ridiculous (that's 40TB usable space with RAID1). Cut the price per TB in half two more times to make it there. Otherwise, spinning platters are the bottleneck with my 10Gb network.

Which probably would have happened in the next few years if not for tariffs.

Even without tariffs, the collusion between nand manufacturers to keep prices high meant 2030 would be the earliest that 8tb SSDs would be "affordable"
