  I’ve had issues with installing games being slow, but I don’t think I’ve ever noticed any difference in performance during actual gameplay.

  I hope someone make something tiny but as good as a SSD in future, SD cards are absolute shit

    Uh that already exists, MicroSD Express. It’s essentially a PCIe Gen 3 x1 NVMe SSD under the hood

      Are they as reliable as an SSD? If not then the probpem is still there

        I remember people saying that about SSDs vs HDDs, SSDs were the unreliable newfangled junk. Am I old?

    There’s already small NVMe drives the size of, say, four SD cards with up to 1-2 TB capacity. So it shouldn’t be long I reckon.

      Crazy, i hope that companies start to adopt them instead of SD cards soon

        Xbox series s/x has ssds like this but they’re pretty expensive. Not sure if the price is high because of the tech, the specs or the licensing
