This is 'only' ~$570/TB or about the $/TB I paid for my 900P in 2019 with the Star Citizen resale deal. The latest top end P5800X is about $2500/TB.
I was always really hopeful for Optane. Too bad it never really panned out for desktop users.

The above chart shows the 905P and P5800X Optane drives, this P1600X should do about 80% of the 905P in 4K IOPS, per Intel specs.

Similar performance to a 900P at half the price.

TBH optane is only a toy at this point.

What am I missing?
The 905P and 900P have been very reasonable lately. You can get the 960GB 905P off Newegg for $399.

Hynix is citing deep-que IOPS numbers that do not translate to 4K Q1T1 IOPS performance.

Like I said above, this P1600X should do about 80% the 4K Q1T1 performance of a 905P, or considerably more than double any non Optane SSD on the market.
Just comparing my 900P vs. a 2TB Pilot-E in my machine right now unoptimized, the Pilot-E has 60% the 4K high que depth performance, but 25% the 4K Q1T1 performance of the 900P.

Hynix is citing seriously inflated numbers, those are deep-que IOPS numbers that do not translate to 4K Q1T1 IOPS performance.

[edit] oh wait - the chart you linked is for the optane 5800x which is a $2000 800gb drive and the p905 1.5tb is also thousands of dollars. Yes, these devices have incredible random 4k speeds. the drive in this thread is not nearly that fast.

I've seen enough claims of "you have to see it to believe it" that it makes me think the real world performance is night and day, even if the summary metrics don't necessarily show it.
