Storage Performance Roundup: Overall, the Corsair MP600 Gen4 drive came up on top in this large set of consumer-level applications. PCIe 4.0 is a new interface (available only on AMD's latest platform for now) and that comes with some benefits, although we can't say it's overwhelmingly faster than the drives that came before it.
PCIe 4.0 vs. PCIe 3.0 SSDs Benchmarked: If you don't do content creation or other data-intensive work, there won't be much benefit, though down the road there may be some scenarios that can take advantage of the full 5GB/s speed. Much of the Gen 4 SSD launch is marketing hype, but it's true that the drives are objectively faster, so it's always great to see technology progress.
