Yup, and originally I was also aiming to put together a full SSD NAS, so I wanted to use multiple 4TB sticks for that since it was reasonably priced (at the time) for the amount of storage and speed. Alas, now I’m just waiting to see if it’ll ever go back under $400, but I’m not holding my breath.
Wouldn’t it have been cheaper to buy a few smaller ones and a PCIe card?
Then you’re losing pcie lanes, and you have to deal with split storage or software raid which doesn’t always work the best.
