Im starting to transition from hdd to all nvme though. 24 used 2tb enterprise drives would make a 32tb ceph pool with 4+2 erasure coding for about $2500. You could probably get away with like 22+2 erasure coding for a single home server and get 44tb usable storage.
That’s definitely in bulk storage terroritory, like hundreds of torrents or archive mirroring. I think it’d be worth doing for something greenfield, but it’s not worth tossing an existing hard drive array just for nvme.
How much do you expect to pay for the 24 NVMe disks?
likely a typo from 2-4
