For a such a price I would expect a larger Optane SSD (I am assuming you would use it for your boot/application drive).

2TB base storage is also ridiculous for such a price, although you can fit a lot of music in 2TB even if you store everything in FLAC.

That, and how they're somehow able to take you from 2TB of additional storage to 64TB for a mere 2 grand... Something isn't adding up

The optane is weird on multiple fronts, but what struck me was the ram. ONLY 48GB when you have dual CPUs, seems weird for something of this price.
