I would love to have 4 of these in my server. I imagine the price will be 14K-16K each to start with. A little more than I want to spend on a home server.
I hope they do a little better with the warranty on the consumer model.

The consumer warranty on the 960 Evos is 400 times the capacity of the drive in drive writes or 3 years. That is pretty good. My system drive (a Crucial MX300 275GB) has 9.2TB written in the 16 months that I have had it. Using the Samsung warranty formula, I have used up ~9% of the Total Bytes Written (TBW) in 1 and a third years which would leave me at using up ~21% of the TBW after 3 years at the current rate of writes. My two 500GB Samsung 840 Evos have 9.4 TB and 7.4 TB of total writes over their much longer lifespan but only one of them has ever been used as a system drive.
If that really concerns you then you could go with the Pro versions which double the TBW to 800x the capacity of the drive or 5 years.
