Not sure there is going to be much demand for an 8TB drive SATA drive for $539.

If you need things like a big localized backup source -- I use 6TB Western Digital Black drives in a RAID 1 array, as an example -- the cost is still a fraction of this.

This drive still has a place. But it IS getting more narrow by the day. With 4TB PCIe 3.0 and even 4.0 drives coming in at similar price per Gig, it will likely make more sense for people to go with much more performant 4TB M.2s, or just grab 10-20TB HDDs for local storage. You could pickup a pair of 18TB drives for RAID 1 redundancy at this price. Or x3 12TBs for RAID 5 or ZFS.

Yup....the squeeze is between NVMe on the cost/performance (main drive) end and the older 3.5 spinners on the bulk storage end.

I could envision a wedding photographer with a $2000 workhorse laptop, a 2TB NVMe main drive...and then one free 2.5in bay for storage. He/she might need something REALLY large to store vast repositories of pictures for clients.

For most other people needing 8TB worth of space, an 8TB RAID 1/5 array is going to make more sense because it costs less money.

With hard drive prices crashing, I bet this goes sub-$200 in a year.
