hypothetically what are we looking at for one? $5k? also what about redundancy at these insane sizes? I am not that knowledgeable about enterprise redundancy but it takes a few days for me to do a parity check on my small 4x4TB RAID.

"Nobody needs more than 245 TB storage" or something like that.
Think of all the Chia you could farm 🙄

Data hoarders frothing with excitement…
Been doing a lot of data verification lately. That max-sized drive would take almost a day to fill up at max speed (assuming you had a data source to max it’s interface out). Reading it all out again would only take a bit longer than 5 1/2 hours.
I’m sure there are plenty of orgs that these things would be a godsend.
Just... show me the price...
Anyone got an idea of cost? Of course this is going to be brutal, but it's literally ten times what I have in my NAS, in a size slightly longer than a 2.5" drive.
