NVMe SSDs are turning into a SAN on a card. Literally, the things we think are low-level "drives" are so much more capable and complex now. Same with NICs and even RAM now, where processing power is ubiquitous and present in almost all functional areas. The future with the DPU model is really transforming what "servers" will be. Things that used to require complex enterprise networks all fit within a single box.
That is the info we have been provided with, but SMI can make changes to the spec sheet as the real launch comes closer. I will ask them in person again at FMS.

Is the chart right - does the 8-channel offer the same R/W performance as the 16-channel?ganeshts - Friday, July 29, 2022 - link
