Review on Intel 660p Series M.2 2280 1TB PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 3D2 QLC Internal SSD (Solid State Drive) SSDPEKNW010T8X1 by Damyanti Dhasmana ᠌

If your system is installed on an SSD with a SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s) interface, then switching to M.2 is more than justified. If the transition from a standard HDD to an SSD is noticeable, then when moving from an SSD to an M.2, it is even more noticeable. A test assembled on the knee using a regular command line, a combination of three hard drives: SATA3 HDD, SATA3 SSD and M.2. NAD at 540 Mb/s (see illustration). And, by the way, a paradoxical result: SATA3 SSD writes to itself much slower even than from it to HDD, and from HDD to it. So putting the system on a SATA SSD may not be so attractive. Given that this M.2 Intel SSDPEKNW010T8X1 costs almost the same, it's the perfect choice.
