gollark: <@306998505862594569> For boot a decent SATA SSD will still be about the same speed.
gollark: Not on the same connector, though: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.2#Form_factors_and_keying>
gollark: ... *can* you run IDE over PCIe or SATA?Oddly, with different M.2 keys, you can get I²C, USB, DisplayPort, audio, SIM card connectors, SMBus, SDIO, UART and PCM on a M.2 card. I don't know why they added support for this.
gollark: What do you want me to say, AHCI vs NVMe? PCIe vs SATA?
gollark: Er. What?
