Seagate ahs some SAS 12Gbps 2.5" spiners (10k and 15k) that have a 32GB sMLC cache.

We don't find them a lot used on ebay (yet), and their price are not competitive vs a used enterprise SSD (..yet)

But I am intrigued. Does some of you have experience with these drives?

We tried a few. Here's the problem. Why suck so much power? They're small too compared to what you can get for sas or nvme.
