So my question is what is the use case. S3 is not a use case it’s a protocol to 
access the storage.

How many nodes are you looking to deploy?

What model of Kioxia drive are you looking to use as a brief look said all the 
30TB drives where read intensive.

If you go with 90 drive chassis then you are looking at a ratio of 1:22 for 
NVME to HDD which could be a big issue made worse by the use of read intensive 
drives that may only do 80K write IOPS. Back to the first question.

Last one is where are you going to put the S3 bucket metadata? Comes back too 
the first question of what is the use case ?

Like Mark one of the configurations I use a lot is the 2U24. Whilst the 90 
drive chassis looks good on paper it typically needs a deeper rack is very 
heavy and also consumes a lot of power. You are now at close to 2PB per node 
which is a massive amount of data to rebuild should a node be lost. Unless you 
are wanting just a very deep archive and a cluster of 30+PB then IMHO they 
don’t make sense.
