Ten years of computer storage progress
> The big drive was my boot drive for several years.
> The SATA drive was my fast gaming drive for a couple of years; it was also my last ever SATA storage drive...
> The tiny thing in center right was my first M.2 NVMe drive; that 1TB drive was installed in my previous machine using a PCIe3 addon card.
When I upgraded my system to AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, early in 2021, I got rid of all all of the SATA drives and replaced them with m.2 drives; two are PCIe4, one is PCIe3, still using that same addon card. The only SATA device that I have now is my BluRay drive, which I use for backups onto M-Disc media.
It sure is a different world!!

The internals of a Seagate hard disk drive -- failed replacement of a failed drive. These last me about 2 years nowadays, if lucky. (note to photographers: backup, backup, and extra backup your photos!!!) Luckily this was just the DVR.
