Are they worth it Hooded compared too an ssd?

[Hooded]

No cables, no extra cost, lean clean machine

[nass]

ya suppose thought maybe they were faster read off the board compared to a 6g cabled connection idea.

[Hooded]

If it's an M.2 SATA Express or M.2 PCIE then those are faster running at 10GB as apposed to SATA3's 6GB. However if it's just a SATA M.2 then the performance is the same as on SATA3

[Cyclops]

SATA 3 is 6 Gb/s. M.2 PCI-E goes up to PCI-E 3.0 4x which is 4 GB/s. That's roughly 7 times faster than SATA 3.

[Chann3l]

ya. MemExp... for y'all west coasters.

can always have them ship for y'all east coasters lol. I have just noticed massive price discrepancies between NCIX and Memory express on tons of stuff. I mean, NCIX will match the price, but it just feels like I shouldn't even bother. Most stores, memexp included will beat the price by 10 percent the difference.
