Is anyone trying Ceph clusters containing larger (4-8TB) SSD drives?

8TB SSDs are described here (
https://www.anandtech.com/show/16136/qlc-8tb-ssd-review-samsung-870-qvo-sabrent-rocket-q
) and make use QLC NAND flash memory to reach the costs and capacity.
Currently, the 8TB Samsung 870 SSD is $800/ea at some online retail stores.

SATA form-factor SSDs can reach read/write rates of 560/520 MB/s, while not
as great as nVME drives is still a multiple faster than 7200 RPM drives.
SSDs now appear to have much lower failure rates than HDs in 2021 (
https://www.techspot.com/news/89590-backblaze-latest-storage-reliability-figures-add-ssd-boot.html
).

Are there any major caveats to considering working with larger SSDs for
data pools?

Thanks,
  Matt
