Hi, 

 

I was wondering if it's worth getting a M.2 NVME drive over a traditional SSD, I just watched a video comparing the two and in terms of performance the difference in negligible.

 

Is there any real world difference between the two, is it worth paying more for the M.2 drive.

Here's the Service Manual:

That benchmark video I am not sure about. NVME is definitely the way to go although the big gain is HDD vs. any kind of SSD. Even a 2.5 inch SATA SSD is a major improvement. But an NVME is in a class by itself as far as boot time, etc.
