Minor: can you use data.data() and data.size() rather than &data[0] and N * sizeof(T) here?

Perfect, that works! One more thing: can you add a deleted constructor taking a std::array<T, N>&& just like there is for vector and string? e.g. this one. This will make sure people can't misuse Buffer and construct it from a temporary array, which will end up making the buffer contain garbage once it goes out of scope.

should be fixed

static_assert(sizeof(T) == sizeof(DataType), "sizeof(T) != sizeof(DataType)");
}

// Don't allow construction from temporary vectors
template <typename T>
Buffer(std::vector<T>&& data) = delete;
