Even 2TB SSDs can be bought at < $130 now. Plus the fact that consumer motherboard usually have 2 m.2 slot. You can have 4TB of ultra fast storage on a normal consumer level computer without pcie extension cards. Which is overkill for most people. Most consumers probably don't even need that much storage space.
- kragen 4y agountil they start shooting video or finetuning stable diffusion or something video and archived neural net snapshots are pretty sequential
- mmis1000 4y agoI don't think you need nvme ssd just to play video. For that kind of usage. SATA ssd is good enough. And neural net snapshots...? Do most people even do AIs?
- kragen 4y agoyeah, that's what i'm saying about video, raw capacity matters more than bandwidth, and below the 100ms level, random seek latency hardly matters at all for video right now most people don't use neural net snapshots but 25 years ago most people didn't use 3-d rendering, encryption, or video codecs either
