For real. It’s like SSD manufacturers are in cahoots with HDD manufacturers to never step on their turf(capacity.)

SSD manufacs keep chasing useless metrics like sequential write speed in consumer drives, when if they just chased capacity they could kill HDDs forever and we’d all be better off for it. Then again, i guess they’d also lose revenue since they don’t nearly die as much as HDDs, so i guess there’s that.

Or…they could keep with their current trend but actually focus on metrics that matter. Like lower que depth operations which actually make an operating system feel amazing to use like Q1T1. The difference between even an Intel Optane 905p and some of the newest fastest gen4 SSDs currently on the market is still crazy large in terms of how much better the OS feels to use moment to moment for me.
