Hi
I hope someone can clarify SSDs speed limits in every day use (copying 100s/1000s of files, zipping folders), a file handling tasks. As far as I understand the current SSDs are mostly limited to speeds around 550MB/s because of SATA 3 limitation (max 6.0Gb/s, 600MB/s).
I'm not sure why NVME SSDs are only faster with manipulation (copying, reading, writing) of small number of large files and not the 1000s. While the max speeds go up to 3500MB/s, benchmarks in every day use show not a significant faster than normal SSDs.
Is this because of CPU and RAM limitations? That every day use is so more involved with CPU and RAM that their usage actually limits the full potential of NVME SSD?
I see no news on SATA 4, so I assume this means all SSDs will be NVME, when PCIe 4 is standard.
So, will PCIe 4 have the same results as NVME SSD compared to SSDs? So some very specific tasks might take advantage of higher speed SSDs, but mostly CPU and RAM will prevent for everyday use to be much faster then 550MB/s?
Or maybe I'm missing something big here?
Thanks!
