I am sure someone might have thought on this on too.
Coming from PATA to SATA and its revisions.
Though eventually evolving with PCI express lanes to be used for storage. I am keen to know one thing. As data centers are becoming common these days and server class storage options are probably jumping to NAND storage after all. I wonder what will remain of the disk spinning traditional harddisks.
As we all know SATA as well as SAS from speeds been provided upto 12gb/s and spinning rpm around 15000. For how long will these drives go along ? Even the so called SATA Express isnt widely used. On the other hand introduction of PCIe 4.0 leading to PCIe 5.0 would definitely increase speeds of SSD (nvme) but what about harddrives in particular ?
Why cant harddrives be using the same speeds coming from PCI express x4 ?
In my opinion no matter how good a cell of an ssd is. Traditional harddrive still hold durability over SSD.
