    I have the impression that they’re recommending this drive just because of the affiliate link money.

    They link to a review that they made SIX years ago and at that time it was the fastest drive. Six years it’s a geologic era for this kind of stuff. That review is outdated and invalid if compared to modern hardware.

    IMHO it doesn’t make sense in 2024 to buy a server PCIe 3.0 drive at enterprise prices when you can get a much faster seagate ironwolf pcie 4.0 nvme drive for half the price and in 2TB configuration.
