Best SSD for music


Recommended Posts

Do the M.2 NVMe SSD drives also introduce noise into the system or are they better than standard SSD drives? Would an HDD still be a better choice in a NAS drive for Music?

I'm looking at the M.2 as well for a new server. There's no metal enclosure and the dedicated connector doesn't really allow modification. 

The only M.2 Ive seen is like half RAM stick, maybe a metal case is available, havent looked as yet. 

 

The upside is the M.2 leaves a footprint like RAM, avoids the inertia of a traditional SSD, although would house the OS, which carries traffic, kinda stuck with that in any case.

And how will an M.2 SSD drive compare with a HDD for music storage? HDD still the better option?
