- "Why choose PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD over SATA 2280 SSD? Our mini PC features dual M.2 2280 PCIe 3.0 x4 slots supporting speeds over 3500 MB/s — nearly 7x faster than SATA’s ~500 MB/s max. This speed brings clear benefits: boots in about 10 seconds, launches PS, PR and games faster, copies 10GB files easily, shortens game loading, and enables smooth multitasking without bottlenecks. SATA suffices for basic office, browsing and video tasks but falls behind with large files, heavy software and games. Our dual NVMe slots also support higher capacity expansion, with better performance and scalability than SATA."
