Applications for NVMe SSDs
NVMeA communications
protocol optimizedspecifically to handle
high bandwidth transferspeeds with up to4 lanes per device
Supports up to 1000MB/sper lane (PCIe Gen 3.1)
INFOGRAPHIC
*Theoretically, 4-lane NVMe interface delivers up to 7x better performance than SATA based on 1000MB/s per lane NVMe and 600MB/s SATA . Practically speaking, current NVMe SSDs have the capability of delivering up to 3-5X better sequential performance, depending on whether the workload is write or read.

Future-Ready Your System
NVMeTM SATA
Does yoursystem support
NVMe?
Do you expectyour workload
to increase overthe next year?
Yes! Make the switch& experience improved
performance.
Does yoursystem support
NVMe?
Not Yet. Then makesure all future buildsare NVMe enabled.
If it will increase, thenNVMe could requirefewer systems with
higher performance.
Accomplish up to5x* more work using
NVMe vs SATA
Is Your System Ready for the Future?
