Replace SATA SSD with NVMe SSD

wow, it's fucking nothing

what you were expecting retard?

Advertised increase of 8x

>50% performance increase
>"hurr durr I'm disappointed"

500MB/s read/write on SATA SSD
3500MB/s and 1500MB/s on NVMe

I thought the difference should be larger

Uncompressing and extracting archives is a CPU-bound task though.

Alrighty then

what tasks actually take advantage of NVMe SSD speed?

Try it with an uncompressed .tar

Meme booting up speed.

booting up

>what tasks actually take advantage of NVMe SSD speed?
Depends on the disk, if Optane then you'd get relatively high speed for random access, if it's one of those shitty Samsung disks, you only get the advertised speed for sequential reads.

There's really no user workload I could imagine that you would really gain from those speeds though, other than booting up or loading very large files into memory fast.

Maybe download large files, if you have a fast internet connection? You should notice an increase in performance as long as your download bandwidth is high enough.

Linux. NTFS and the Windows kernel are a boat anchor on disk I/O throughput.

>what is iops
brainlets like op don't know, because they are fucking retarded

creating veracrypt file containers seems to utilize nvmeme drives pretty well

very edge case workload kek

No.
M.2 drives take longer to initialize

It pays to do your research before throwing your money on the shiny new thing. And on the subject - 860EVO or 860PRO? Is double the Terabytes Written just something that looks good on paper or is it really worth paying near double for?

you probably have Intel cpu that's crippled by specter patches. They get up to 60% IO hit on performance.

VMs.

searching files (e.g. compiling huge projects)
loading large files like db

prolly marginal improvements to >muh gaymes load times

I think either one should outlive it's usefulness. The Evo should take many petabytes of writes before failing, it's more likely you'll upgrade to something better before it fails.

>50% performance increase, even in a CPU-bound task

Why are you complaining OP?

How often do people upgrade their disks anyway? The usual for me is like 8-10 years.

Hard to say considering most people migrated to SSDs recently, and SSDs are still evolving at a fast pace.

I bet you didn't even install the NVMedrivers for it.

extracting a 8GB iso in 5 seconds

M.2 ist a form factor
