You can get a 4TB NVME SSD for 200 USD these days. And of course Sony wouldn't pay retail price.

2TB, what Sony went for, does appear to have (just barely) the lowest price per GB right now though. $0.48/GB vs $0.52/GB for a cheap 4TB NVME SSD.

Honestly I'm surprised they didn't also release a 4TB version. But I imagine they may release it later so they can get a second wave of PS5 Pro headlines later on.

I read it as the PS5, so launching November 2020 it should have come with a 4tb drive. The wording likely confused me
