We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We can already get new Samsung 8TB QLC in 2.5” SSD on Amazon for $300
SATA != NVMe. The above Intel drive is NVMe, not SATA.
I'm aware. The OP we're both responding to asked for SATA if not available for NVMe. $300 is cheaper than $400
Except he asked for a 8TB NVMe or a 16TB SATA. Is your $320 SATA drive 16TB? I was simply pointing out 8TB NVMe drives were available and not overly expensive.
