30x64GB = 1920GB. That is nowhere near the storage requirement people have, no case or PCIe extenders will give you hundreds of sata ports. And power consumption? 100 2W SSDs still consume 200W in use.

I guess I should state that I made my own database and that I control the amount of data better then most people. If you need more than 512GB for you product and still can't pay rent then you are out of luck I guess!

  Ok, I'll bite: what does the database contain?

But this is not for (longer-term) storage. Consider scratch space for graphics, video editing, massive compilation. Something that needs a lot of fast writes. A RAID0 array of HDDs is a traditional way to solve it; it's slower than an SLC SSD. A QLC disk won't be any faster than an HDD at high write loads, but would die significantly sooner. Of course, for your home NAS you just take a bunch of 5400rpm HDDs and store your videos on the cheap. And for your gaming PC you take a cheap QLC SSD and enjoy the high read speeds while doing pretty little writes.
