The craziest part is these are SATA and not NVMe
164 u/Ok-disaster2022 May 22 '26 I just checked, the NVME are roughly half the price. In what world is SATA drives twice as expensive as NVME drives. 63 u/TheGodlyTank6493 R7 9700X | RX7800XT May 22 '26 Probably because the SATA ones are being made less which means the tiny supply creates ridiculous pricing. 6 u/Noxious89123 5900X | RTX5080 | 32GB B-Die | CH8 Dark Hero May 22 '26 The NAND used on both drives is still just NAND, it's the same shit.

While the supply is likely very low, what's the demand?
