It used to be 3.3M IOPS on 8 SSDs and now it's 2M on 8 SSDs but significantly cheaper; I wouldn't be surprised if they've replaced MLC with TLC.

8 TLC drives could easily hit 3.3M IOPS before... i3 have 8 1.9TB NVMe SSDs max, right? A 2TB P4600(TLC NAND) has 610,000 random read IOPS max, so that's 4.8M IOPS right there. A 7.68TB P4320 has 427,000 random read IOPS max, so that's 3.42M IOPS right there over 8 drives... Maybe they went from TLC to QLC with these ones?
