can you notice nvme vs sata for general OS use or is it just placebo?
Can you notice nvme vs sata for general OS use or is it just placebo?
Yes and yes. You can notice a difference of seconds if you try to. Functionally it won't make a damn difference.
my next computer will have nvme support BUT I'll stick with sata because it just werks. When have you had ANY problems with sata connections? PCI and Ram slots are always the first stuff to give problems on a mobo, having this in mind I believe that the m.2 will be the same. SATA JUST WERKS ALL THE TIME.
yes
boot time 1-5 seconds
extracting/reading big ass files
Not unless you have two NVMe drives to copy files between, or an extremely specific workload which can write out faster than a regular SATA SSD. I have two systems, one of which is running the OS on a decent Samsung NVMe drive, the other of which is running on an extremely shitty, DRAM-less SATA SSD. There is zero difference between them for desktop usage.
Not noticeable, but those China NVME prices are almost as cheap as SATA drives.
Other than boot times it doesn't really matter. For small reads and writes any SSD will be good
It's faster for boot and that's about it, after it's meh. Used both and really just do SATA as I don't want my GPU blowing on that shit day in and day out.
Only real time I can tell is if running a shit load of VM's or doing a very large file unpack/pack
placebo but it does take up less space at least
How much faster is a 1 TB nvme drive likely to be over a 512gb. I bought the 512 version of OP's pic
to the point you probably won't notice, most shit doesn't saturate most drives like OP's unless it's a big install, decompress, or benchmark
PCI NVME overheats and ruins mobos.
Just use a regular sata m.2
saucy?
Is copying tons of and large files considered general use? Then yes, easy.
After 256gb the benefits of larger NVMe drives are basically only noticeable in benchmarks.
Absolutely. My gaming laptop runs data operations noticeably faster than my macbook air, the former has nvme and the latter SATA
You're a fucking retard, my friend.
You don't really notice it but there's zero reason to buy sata ssds anymore, they are on a legacy interface.
What's the point of having 5 pci-e slots if you don't put anything in them? Buy $3 adapters and put them in the slots. Anyone buying SATA SSD when they have both UEFI and PCI-E 2.0 or greater is retarded and doing it wrong, purposely choosing the worse product.
At the cost of 2 sata ports
the rear end of his large intestine.
i have empty sata ports and sata cables. only 1 m.2 slot.
And i said pci-e slots. Unless you have itx, you probably have a free 4x slot
SATA SSD's still seem to be slightly cheaper, another reason as mentioned before is heat from a GPU may damage the SSD over time.
>What's the point of having 5 pci-e slots if you don't put anything in them?
I don't buy Full ATX boards as matx has pretty much all you need these days
>$3 adapters
where?
AliExpress
Slap a heatsink on that nvme. I'm using the pictured one with it just below my GPU, and the drive never exceeds 36'c.
dont m2 nvme and m2 sata run hot as FUCK? like 80C - 90C?
no. mines at 40c right now.
>AliExpress
loooooooool, recommending physical botnets. Fucking shit Jow Forums
No. Unless you copy large files
heat-wise, is it better to take a SSD just to keep it longer than a NVMe ?
If you have shitty chassis cooling it does.

most normie types of loads (gaymuring, browsing web, etc): placebo
On windows some retardedly implemented API calls actually involve reading filesystem. Like there may be stutters in some applications when they check if the default audio device changed. It's a rare case, but NVMe eliminates that.
No, it doesn't make sense. NVMe SSDs can get hotter because they allow more intense use (because of faster interface). They still won't melt because they throttle when reaching threshold temps. You don't have to bother with it, any modern tech throttles.
I don't think anyone expects good performance on windows.
The main advantage of SSDs in the first place was it's massive increase over random access speed when compared to HDDs. NVME provides another sizable boost to that over SATA but the returns at that point are noticeable but barely. SATA ssds are usually much cheaper anyway. So the advantage lays with SATA at this point in time.
oh no bros
Your fault for using NTFS.
Yes when you are remuxing large video files, it takes ages, even up to 10mins for remuxing two 50GB movies.

What's wrong with Unix?
definitely
nvme is so fast that your files, programs and games open before you even click them

I notice every single time I boot up the fucking drives are mounted differently in /dev. From nvme0n1 to nvme1n1, etc. Thank you based UUID saviors.
Also, the cheap m.2 EVO I bought for windows over the m.2 PRO for linux is noticeably slower in every single regard.
