alt Hacker NewsI mean, I have the same machine and the pricing is only what it is because it has that 1TB nVME in it instead of larger. nVME prices are insane and have been for months.
Reality is on a single spark I'm constantly running out of room and it being an odd size M.2 slot it's a pain to upgrade. I'm setting up a NAS over RDMA via ConnectX though, that's fun.
I already have a recycled QNAP-now-TrueNAS that has 10G connections into the fleet so the 1TB doesn't bother me at all. I did some rough math and I don't think I'll ever need to load weights off NFS for what I'm doing so far, but the capability is there.
