Only ram based ssds are faster
Are they still existing? Any links for a model? I remember old devices based on DDR1 RAM and after that... Nothing seems appeared in the market.
For home pc (not a server!) bigger nand ssds are probably better (due to price/better bang for the buck)
All that CPU cores, additional MHz, GHz, GB of HDD storage - all of that are evolution. SSDs made a real revolution in computers. I remember myself dreaming about completely silent computer when my first PC (Pentium 4 3.05 Ghz) tried to handle Quake 3 Arena game. I also hate HDDs clicks and motor noise.
I remember to pay 225 USD for OCZ Vertex 2 OCZSSD3-2VTX90G 90GB Internal SSD SATA back in 2010. Never regret about that even when 2 SSDs died during first year and I had to RMA them.... but this is different story.
I watched LTT channel and even Linus in his TOP builds with high-end hardware seems not care about something more than installing single (mass market) Samsung 980 PRO M.2 drive and that's it. No real benefits of doing RAID-0? No real benefits of buying server storage solutions? No better solutions exists?
I already have 8 TB of SATA SSD Storage, but I want a ultimately fast drive for a OS and other software (240-480 GB will be enough for my needs).
I really miss that "Wow effect" so the main question is what is best SSD (or other storage solution) exist in the market right now no matter what is the price\GB?
IMO these will continue to go lower.
Everything will continue to go lower. Till the moment of new "pandemic chip production shortage", "floods in Asia". "Chia cryptocurrency hype", etc.
