Sorry… I’m not sure that math is mathing for me. How do you get that 122 TB of flash is 3.5x more expensive that 12TB of SAS? Aren’t you a full order of magnitude in the wrong direction or did I miss something? Or I guess to say, 12TB would be $1,200 for flash, comparably, making it 3x cheaper, no?

Sorry. I half-edited. It was originally 20TB, but 20TB drives only come in 3.5 inch form factor, so I was going with 2.4TB drives (which is the biggest 2.5 I could find directly from configuring servers). You can't fit 122TB of them in a 2U server.
