For 8 TB looks to be a pretty good deal if you have U.2 on your board to connect it!

Yeah, big - but pretty slow for U.2 drives though considering the size.

Yup, almost SAS3 speeds. I have a few of these, they're great if you have limited cooling etc.

You can always get PCIe adapter like this one Amazon.com: Dilinker U.2 to PCIe Adapter - x4 PCIe - for 2.5" U.2 NVMe SSD - SFF-8639 PCIe Adapter - U.2 SSD - PCIe SSD - U.2 Drive(PEX4SFF8639): Industrial & Scientific if you don't have native u.2 port.

Good deal. Wish these were direct pcie half height cards though.
