Few people are building flash nas though the price pressure from flash storage on hdd prices did play a big part. Before flash storage prices started pushing pressure on hdd prices per tb larger drives had become more expensive than smaller drives. We are I think just 3-4 years away from 8tb SSD being cheaper than hdd for me that is the point where we will have mass SSD adoption for Nas drives.

I'd guess that the kind of person that makes a NAS wouldn't have been stopped by h.264 sizes. The comment I replied to seemed pretty focused on ordinary system drives.
