8TB in the M.2 NVMe form factor is gonna be tough, though 8TB in the U.2 form factor (PCIe to a 2.5" drive) can be had for $400 used / $550 new (search “Intel DC P4510 SSDPE2KX080T851”).
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.
I just wanna buy some 8TB NVMes for the same price as 4x2TB NVMes. Or give me a cheapo not premium flash 16TB SATA SSD, if an NVMe one just isn’t doable.

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
