NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) 

NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a protocol for accessing solid state drives connected over a PCI Express bus. It was designed specifically for solid-state memory (SSD) and is intended to provide high performance and low latency data access. 

Key NVMe features: 

• High data transfer rates: NVMe enables read and write speeds that far exceed the capabilities of SATA SSDs. For example, NVMe can deliver write speeds of up to 3.2 GB/s, which is several times faster than SATA 3. 
• PCIe connectivity: NVMe drives connect directly to the motherboard through a PCIe slot, eliminating the need for SATA cables and providing faster system interaction. 
• Multi-threading and command queues: NVMe supports up to 64,000 queues with the ability to execute up to 64,000 commands per queue, allowing you to efficiently process large amounts of data and utilize multiprocessor systems. 
• Low Latency: The NVMe protocol is designed to minimize latency when accessing data, making it especially effective for applications that require fast response times, such as games and servers. 

NVMe Applications: 

• High-performance workstations and gaming PCs: NVMe drives are ideal for these systems, providing fast operating system and application boot times. 
• Servers and data centers: NVMe allows SSDs to be used to their full potential, which is especially important for processing large amounts of data and providing fast access to it. 
• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: NVMe is almost a prerequisite for work in these areas due to the high speed of data processing.
