> Workloads just aren't often large and sequential enough Another important thing to mention is that even on sequential write workloads where NVMe shines they actually have limited benefit. Because after the SLC cache fills up seqential speed drops like a hot potato. So if you're copying a smallish large-file which won't fill the cache then it'll be few seconds faster than a SATA drive. Or you'll be copying a large large-file, which'll fill the cache and drop to NAND speeds so it'll still end up being few seconds faster than a SATA drive.
