Sandisk
The Sandisk Extreme Pro offers the exact same performance as the WD
Black NVMe. Because, wait for it—it’s the same drive. The drive
uses four PCIe lanes for a theoretical maximum throughput of well
over 3GBps.
As a replacement for the SATA bus, it was decided to leverage a
much higher-bandwidth bus technology that was also already in
place—PCI Express, or PCIe. PCIe is the underlying data transport
layer for graphics and other add-in cards.. As of generation 3.x, it
offers multiple lanes (up to 16 for use with any one device in most
PCs) that handle darn near 1GBps each (985MBps).
