in an era of shortages, if there was an optane factory today ready to print money...
Secondary market surplus pricing (~$1/GB) value accrues to the buyer..
> (~$1/GB)
Isn't that actually crazy good, even insane value for the performance and DWPD you get with Optane, especially with DRAM being ~$15/GB or so? I don't think ~$1/GB NAND is anywhere that good on durability, even if the raw performance is quite possibly higher.
