I am a photographer. I spent 19 days in Iceland (2 of those include air travel) and took 20,081 photos on my Z7II (45.7MP) for a total of 381GB on disk, or 20GB per day. With a "crappy" lifespan of 600TBW, this drive will only last until May 2044.
PCIe 3.0 vs 5.0 is up to ~10% slower when loading games (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tD2pn1_
It is super cool that some of you are buying 4TB PCIe 5.0 drives. But for those of us who come to Slickdeals to save money, this is an amazing deal for storing data while traveling or gaming. I play games for hours at a time. 4 seconds every 15+ minutes does not affect my experience. Will your game load faster? Yup. But with the extra $200 that I saved by getting this antiquated dinosaur of a drive, I just picked up 3-4 games at full price...or, because we are always on the prowl for good deals, I picked up another 10 games to play...and I will suffer through that slower load time because of it.

Sure.
But words matter. *Some* games are more than 100GB. Ignoring that none of the games I have installed on my desktop or my sim rig are more than 100GB nor are the most recent 12 purchases in my library I have yet to download, I concede they do exist. Challenging though because people cannot seem to agree on their size. Game Rant (https://gamerant.com/pc-games-fil...gest-huge/) and The Gamer (https://www.thegamer.co
60% of people whose data goes to steam have less than 500GB of free space on their drive and 45% of people have more than a 1TB drive (https://store.steampowe

for me, if it can last 6-7 yrs, maybe it'll be worth it because by then for this amount of money we might be looking at 16 TB drives, but with 600TBW because it'll probably be on "Octo-LC"
