Notice that this is under their emerging technologies section. I don't think you can buy them yet. Hopefully we'll know more as time goes on. :)

These are really interesting to me, but how can you buy them?  What's the
performance like in ceph?  Are they using the keyvaluestore backend, or
something specific to these drives?  Also what kind of chassis do they go
into (some kind of ethernet JBOD)?

How about drives that run Linux with an ARM processor, RAM, and an
ethernet port right on the drive?  Notice the Ceph logo. :)
