Not to nitpick, but M.2 is just a form factor. The big gains come from being NVMe PCIe, not the form factor. You get the same gains with NVMe PCIe in 2.5" drive

- nl 11y agoM.2[1] defines both the form factor and (importantly) the interface. While it is true that NVMe PCIe is the interface that makes the difference here, the standardization of both the interface and the form factor seems pretty important here.
