WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN...
M.2 and MVMe?
Q I’m not exactly a computer novice, having owned a PC in one form or another for over 30 years, but I’m very far from being an expert – especially when it comes to some of the modern terminology. That doesn’t cause me too many problems because I just like to use my laptop. But as my SSD is nearly full I thought I’d look about the possibility of adding a new one. My laptop specifications state that it has a spare M.2 slot, but when I went to look for a drive that might fit I quickly became confused. There seems to be different sizes, and other terms like NVMe, that I need to know about. Can you explain the differences – hopefully in simple terms.
