What? Even optane is less than half that much.

A high performance SSD, capable of over 3GB/s, is less than $200 for 1TB.

P4800X is around 5K. And you probably want them in raid, so at least 10K.

And a 905P costs a quarter of that.

But seriously, a 970 Evo Plus is a high performance SSD suitable for a workstation and that's $400 for two.
