NVMe and SATA SSD
Both are solid-state drives with no moving parts. NVMe connects over PCIe with many parallel queues, so it handles many small reads and writes at once with lower latency; SATA SSDs use an older interface. NVMe helps databases, online shops and build jobs; for many websites a SATA SSD is fast enough.
What it does not mean
- Not every plan in an NVMe country is NVMe: some plans there use SATA SSD, so check the plan's disk line.
- Not a backup: data on a server's disk is not backed up unless the plan includes a backup service.
Not to be confused with
- SSD
- Solid-state drive. NVMe drives and SATA SSDs are both SSDs; the difference is how they connect.
