Why did msata and m.2sata fail so hard?
whats the benefit?
How did m.2 sata fail?
>>103100543I hardly see m.2 sata used. It's mostly nvme or the regular sata
because everyone wants nvme speeds
>>103100521Sata costs more to implement these days.They're also limited to 500MB/s, and have no HMB support.
Because slow sucks
>>103100524>>103100694>>103100701>>103100710what's the benefit to pcieshit meme?
>>103100908I don't have to faff around with cords in my case, I can just stick it on my motherboard
>>103100689Transition tech. See:>>103100701>>103100710>>103100694
>>103100908I have enough RAM to install games on a ramdisk and it makes no difference for load times. I don't know what the fuck game devs are even doing anymore.
Because NVME is better, retard
>>103100521MSATA because SSDs of that form factor didn't really have the kind of capacity and performance to compete yet.M.2 SATA because M.2 NVMe exists and why would you not use that instead?
>>103100908How is your image png and yet has illegible text? Why can I not zoom in? What the fuck is this pisspoor quality screenshot?
>>103101525Can't stuff an NVMe stick into an M.2 SATA port, same goes the opposite way.
>>103100908no benefit to m.2 other than shorter trace distances for pcie4.0/5.0 SSDs.Anything else is just memeshit. If you think SATA is good enough, there are 2.5" drives for you.
>>103101563No but if you're designing a board and you can put a fast NVMe port or a slow SATA port and they take up the same amount of space, which do you choose?
No use case
>>103101593Good statement, this answers it better. Yeah, the preferred interconnect is one that supports NVMe SSDs now.
>>103101598
>>103101598msata to IDE is pretty useful for old stinkpads and cheaper than any IDE device
i'm more mad eSATA failedfuck pciefuck usb type c
>>103102242What do you mean it failed? I used it all the time when it was viable.
>>103100521Do you guys remember when 500 MB/s was considered unbelievably fast?
>>103100521it didn't failit did exactly what it was supposed to do. it kept us going while transitioning to NVMePCI-e attached memory has been the goal for the last 10 years
>>103102807it still is for random io
>>103101581Not true its because devs dont use the potential for it lol. You also know they were not make with gaming in mind? You can see a nd feel the differense when you download big files or upload big files wtf are you smoking poop?
>>103100524>whats the benefit?The benefit is that it doesn't use PCIE, which you do not have infinite of and are limited based on the platform and cpu. let's say you want to buy an APU with an motherboard you would have just enough for a GPU alone. without NVME. So here is the usecase.
