EDIT- it's more like a PCIe SSD only for caching that uses dram.

Hey there. Would this LTT video be relevant?

They are what Linus SHOULD be using in his ZFS setups instead of SSD's as SLOG.
For some reason Linus thinks it is a good idea to burn out his SSD's by using them as ZFS SLOG devices.
The last video I watched where he did a similar screwup was when he was competing against some NAS vendor where Linus could save 1000's of dollars building a cheaper system with free nas for video editing. https://youtu.be/c5PnP5bKz6k

If he wanted to build a more solid system he should go with a used RMS-200 or RMS-300 or one of the ones you posted above. But nay...
