With standard SSDs you get to pay less (more budget-friendly) and it’s easier to install on another desktop or laptop since 2.5″ SATA III is the same interface used in almost all computers of the last decade. Of course, with newer motherboards supporting PCIe 4.0, you can install the newest NVMe M.2 Generation 4 SSDs to reach speeds up to 7500 MB/s! Initially, you can get a standard SSD with speeds up to 650MB/s. The best SSD for photo editing or video editing is the one your computer’s motherboard supports (check manual). The newer NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) SSD drives give you better loading and export times in Adobe Lightroom, Capture One, or any other photo editing software. This will increase dramatically the speed of your photo/video editing process. Standard SSDs use an older SATAIII interface while the newer M.2 NVMe SSDs connect directly via PCIe. The PNY XLR8 CS3140 is the fastest PCI Express x4 Solid State Drive on the market with read speed at 7500MB/s, write speed at 6850MB/s, and a 5-Year Warranty! Is M.2 NVMe faster than SSD?Īn M.2 NVMe SSD ( Top speed 7500MB/s) is 10x times faster than a 2.5″ SATAIII SSD ( Top speed 650MB/s).
By choosing the right SSD, you will increase significantly your computer’s performance, import/export times in software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Lightroom, Photoshop, Capture One, etc., and improve your workflow!
