I feel my sibling comments (I paid $x y years ago, get off my lawn) are missing your point. If you're looking to fill a whole datacenter with Optane the price compared to current storage tech is eye watering. This technology is aimed at servers with a high IO load and a lot of RAM caching, not home users.

Of course, as with previous SSD tech, the price will come down fairly rapidly.
