I am using an SATA SSD now so boot time around 10 seconds or so. Was somewhat an early adopter for SSD, bought 128GB for 700-ish at the time.
Considered using m.2 pcie but most probably wait till prices drop low enough for 256gb. |

QUOTE(chanhin @ Jun 21 2016, 11:18 PM) I forgot to install the Samsung NVMe driver... hahaha how fast is your boot time? ONce installed, performance siok  My ultrabook now also with latest SATA SSD. IMO, PCIe SSD might be 4 to 5x faster, but practically is less than 2x faster due to limited in other components such as CPU etc. When we are using 5x faster SSD such as PCIe, Our CPU is not 5x faster. If our CPU and other component is infinity speed, then we should experience lots of differences. Am I happy with my Samsung PCIe 950 Pro? Yes and No. Yes - I love its performance. Even in the future there are drive 2x faster than my Samsung, actual performance improvement should be little due to other limitation. No - I regretted having bought 256GB version. Should had bought 512GB. Why? When you found out the performance is so great, you tends to open your eyes and imagination... And with new usages... It will translated into additional capacity required.  |
