FYI 11M IOPS in terms of AWS EBS is 138 gp3 volumes (80K IOPS each), which costs about $56K/month or about $1.3M over 2 years. If anyone was considering using EBS for high-IOPS workloads, don't.
I think your test had 10 980 Pros, which were probably around $120 each at the time (~$1200 total). SSDs are wildly more expensive now, but even if you spend $500 each, it's nowhere close to EBS.
It's apples vs oranges, but sometimes you just want fruit.
