There are four modifications.

OWC offers an alternative. A PCIe SSD compatible with the new Mac Pro is now available. The novelty has the same capacity – 8 TB, but at the same time, it is much cheaper. More precisely, 8 TB is the maximum capacity of an OWC Accelsior 4M2 drive, and for such a model the manufacturer asks for “just” $ 1,600.
