Note, they make an assumption which cannot be derived by data: 65% adoption of the base configuration, 35% adoption of the high-tier configuration. While it makes sense on paper, we don’t know how many units VALVE even produced and produces of both. I can see that VALVE started with a 50/50 distribution, and based on demand shifts AND availability of SSD towards one. All around its still a well made and educated guess of the numbers, based on the little data we have.

The adoption rate is pretty meaningless at the moment considering their queue system just put people into whatever queues they randomized into. I signed up for all 4 mainly wanting a 2TB unit but ended up in the 512GB queue instead. I’ve ordered a 2TB NVMe and an extra 16GB RAM stick so when I get it the first thing I’m doing is installing the upgrades.
