The Pi needs more RAM. 8GB isn't enough

what do you want to use it for that wouldn't also bottleneck the SoC?

Anyone know what the throughout would look like on that? Would love to use it for SSDs if it’s fast or spinning disks if it could run at a reasonable rate.

One lane of pcie. Gen 2 for raspberry pi. Maybe gen 3 for other boards. So, 5-8gbit/s total. Compared to SATA 3 which is 6gbit/s, and there are 5 of those if the esata* port can go that fast.
