The density is what's most relevant and interesting here. Pure is putting 28 of these drives in 3U - so 8.9P of nand in 3U drawing ~3kw of power. Pure gets ~2.5 data reduction on average (deep compression & dedup) and so the real world density is pretty impressive.

The speed of technology is absurd. I operated the Object store in a small scale public cloud company in the EU in 2014 and we had about that capacity over 12 racks drawing 5-7kW each probably.
