If you're able to get enterprise ssds, you could get 16tb ssds... But no clue what minimum order sizes are like for that kind of thing. But of you wanted to use 16tb ssds instead of buying a house 100% down payment, that's an option probably.
A 16TB, a single one, right now is $1800.
As I said, as they become available (read: affordable) then I'll use them. Until that point.. mechanical drives have worked well for 50 years and are fine for me. I can accept a margin of problem, it's the reason I use RAID.
And this isn't an enterprise thing. It's my home NAS. For business things I just use AWS like any sensible person.
