However, things will be totally different if you choose M.2 NVMe drive. The data will be read from the hard disk to the memory first, then the data will be extracted to the CPU’s internal calculations, and then written into the memory, and finally stored in the hard disk. In terms of speed, the read and write speed of M.2 SATA is similar to that of 2.5-inch SSD, and the only difference is the interface. However, the M.2 interface is divided into two types, supporting the SATA channel and NVME channel respectively. The M.2 interface is a new interface specification introduced by Intel to replace mSATA. The shorts of “Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface Specification”, which is an interface protocol for PCIe bus. In this part, you can learn some crucial points about NVMe drive. What’s NVMe drive? Does it have any difference from other SSD? How to boot from NVMe drive? Can it save my slow computer?.
