NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) SSDs are faster than traditional hard drives because they use the PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) interface, which provides a more direct connection to the computer’s CPU. This results in lower latency and higher data transfer speeds than traditional hard drives’ older SATA (Serial ATA) interface. Additionally, NVMe SSDs can handle multiple data streams simultaneously, enhancing their performance, and making them ideal for high-performance computing and gaming.
