12TB is only about $7000 in chips. I buy them for my own products. There’s a lot of ancillary things you need but raw dimms aren’t anywhere near that experience

- maximilianburke 8y agoThe 128GB DIMMs are nearly $3000 each (https://memory.net/product/m386aak40b40-cwd-samsung-1x-128gb-ddr4-2666-lrdimm-pc4-21300v-l-octa-rank-x4-module/ https://memory.net/product/m386aak40b40-cwd-samsung-1x-128gb...) and you need 96 of them. Where can you get 12tb for $7000?

- slededit 8y agoYou'll pay more for the highest density chips, but there are back-planes that support more of the lower density parts. I buy the raw chips in reels not DIMMs. The $7k was based on my costs.
- spydum 8y agoECC DIMMS at the density required for this probably going to run you substantially more.List price for an ECC DDR4 128GB is like close to $10K US each Nobody pays list, but still.. I’m guessing they have something like 48x256gb dimms — that is serious coin.
