Hello Neel, We have not bought it yet, as the project is currently on hold. I'll let you guys know how it works out if we do.
About the SSDs: I was not considering them important because given the nature of the work, we would be fine with saving small bursts on a buffer in SDRAM. But if we did want to store on disk on the fly, wouldn't a standard SATA3 SSD still not be enough? SATA3's limit is 6 Gbps, I think it'd be necessary to jump to an M.2 NVMe or a standard PCIe drive, right?
