This computer, the only one I've owned with m2, is so much higher in specification than any other PC that I have used before that its hard to know how much performance is down to the SSD. I suspect M2 does make a big difference for some disk intensive types of use.
Perhaps the increasing popularity of Intel Optane has increased the price of mechanical disks?

My old NAS has a 2t hard drive in it, and I don't remember it being that much more expensive than it is now.
When I next upgrade my PC (which might come soon by how its behaving at the moment) I'll definitely have an M2 SSD.
Perhaps it will give the usable performance and responsiveness jump that moving from disk to SSD would have done?
Currently have a Sandisk ultra 512gb SATA which was probably my best PC purchase so far.
