Chinese Company UNIS Develops M.2 Gen 5 DRAMless SSD with 14.9 GB/s Max Sequential Speeds

And I find it ridiculous when reviewers are trying very hard to paint some kind of massive improvements from first NVMe drives to "blazingly fast" new PCIe 5.0 14 GB/s reads and writes, when their own results show there is almost no perceptible difference outside select benchmarks - and even those select benchmarks come with very strange conditions. Want to see those 14 GB/s sequential speeds? Only at higher queue depths, which will happen exactly never in usual use case on home PCs. Etc.
 
There are some bigger SATA drives here (from 16TB up to 100TB) but they're likely to be very expensive.

Insanely expensive. Buying 2 4TB and putting them in RAID 0 is cheaper than any single 8 TB drive. 8 TB SSDs from like 7 years ago are more expensive today then before. We are getting royally hosed. If you are a Gamer a 1TB drive for anything other than OS is a bad buy.
