Emmc is not nvme. They're not compatible or interchangeable. You'll be limited by the max emmc speeds for storage. It's probably why it comes with an external drive, because they know just how slow the drive is.
It has an NVMe slot.
I just checked out the specs, that model does not support NVMe. So yeah, there's that.
It does. It's not listed in the specs but there are teardown videos that show it. Austin Evans did one and showed this.
Nope, still wrong. It has an e key m.2 for Wi-Fi.
Put up, or shut up.
...no, it has NVMe. Why are you making this up?
...what am I supposed to "put up", exactly?
NVME is not a port. M.2 is a port, and there’s lots of versions of it. You can’t put an NVME SSD into all of them.
Which is exactly why I specified "NVMe port" and not M.2
What in the world is an NVMe port?
Jesus Christ... would you drop the pedantry? It's childish.
I mean "what is an Ethernet port? Did you mean a RJ-45 port supporting Ethernet?" "What is an ATM machine, did you mean an ATM?"
Don't be that fuckin guy.
I wonder what he could have possibly meant when he said an NVMe port?
How in the world is that pedantic? I was genuinely asking. Yes, the reasonable expectation is that a "NVMe port" is an M2 slot but they have already mentioned that it isn't one. So what is it? Your example doesn't make sense either. There's no one here saying that their Ethernet port isn't an RJ-45.
How about you don't be that guy and read the whole context instead of attacking me about it?
