I'm looking to get asãmuch life out of my systems as I can, and sometimes that means spendingãmore up front to delay the inevitable obsolescence. I'm leaning towardsãNVMe thinking that in 5 years SATA will indeed feel like spinningãdrives, as you mentioned.ããã...

I definitely see a differenceã running VMs, wasn't sure about desktop results. I'm mostly doing web,ã office, photoshop and games here, some transcoding of media.ããã Tr> That said, the pricing is on par between the two, with NVME being muchã Tr> faster in some cases.
