SSD vs M.2 speeds

[xxx68]

Hello, would there be noticeable difference if i use Patriot Burst SSD 960gb - 560MB/s , half for system other half for gaming.  VS buying m.2 drive with crazy speeds for system only ? Keeping my ssd for both system and gaming is better for me due to cost coz I already have that SSD . I also have HDDs in my pc to store photos and stuff. THX

I don't know what speeds those are, specifically not the random speeds.

But an M.2 NVME vs. a 2.5" SATA SSD is not a huge difference for most workloads, except for heavy random workloads (like video editing and 3D modeling).

 

Most people are better off getting a SATA (whether it be M.2 or 2.5") SSD with a larger capacity.

There likely would not be a noticeable difference.
