Samsung introduced a 8 GB/s SSD specifically for PCIe Gen4. I used to work in the SSD business many years ago and we could _trivially_ saturate PCIe Gen3 x4 but it wasn't economical to go to more lanes. (Bandwidth is easy, latency is hard).

Somehow I mistakenly read the parent comment as pcie 4.0 doesn't matter, and typed a whole bunch of paragraphs in answer to that. Point was that 4.0 and more lanes are a much needed improvement so I actually am in agreement with the parent comment. Oops.
