I was having a look at NVMe SSDs yesterday and noticed the cost per TB premium is now only ~4x over hard drives for a much faster device. How quickly should I expect my home NAS to be feasibly SSD only? I'd probably dump hard drives and never look back at ~1.5x premium. Is that soon?

How big is your home NAS? I've been transitioning to SSD for a couple of years now, though I still use Seagate 5TB HDDs for cold-storage backups. The speed and lighter physical weight makes a huge difference to me.

I have two at 4x4TB, so it's still much too expensive to go SSD. I was planning an SSD cache with 2x512GB SSDs in RAID1 for the next build but now I'm wondering how long it will take to be able to go all SSD.

I have been using these Intel NVMes for a while:

I have been very happy with them.
