While some M.2 SSDs are SATA drives, others are faster Non-volatile Memory Express (NVMe) drives that also connect directly to compatible motherboards and boast theoretical transfer speeds up to 20Gbps. These M.2 drives have the same 6Gbps max speed potential as 2.5-inch SATA SSDs but are offered in a smaller form factor, which plugs into compatible motherboards. Umart also stocks M.2 SATA drives for compatible devices.


These SSDs are a cost-effective way to noticeably boost performance over an HDD drive, and they benefit from wide-ranging compatibility. Umart sells 2.5-inch SATA SSDs for desktop computers and older laptops or those seeking a cheaper storage upgrade. Umart stocks different technologies and form factors: Serial AT Attachment (SATA), Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) and M.2 SSD drives. There’s a variety of SSD hard drive technologies to meet different computing needs.
