ohhhhh yeah they had those sata ssds out a few years before the nvme thing came out, I almost forgot about those! but in 2006 yeah that woulda not been cheap, like year zero early adopter type stuff too, pay 1200 for 32 gigs and its dead in 2 years maybe 5 years tops. I got my first one of those quite a few years later once 256gb was comparable in price to 1tb harddisk drive.

Samsung commercialized the first high-volume consumer notebook PC utilizing an SSD in 2006. The Intel X25-M was released in sept 2008 and cut SSD hard drive prices per gigabyte by 60% pretty much instantly
