I'm curious what
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ lsblk -o size,model,type,tran,vendor,name|grep -Ei 'ssd|model';echo;lspci |grep -i nvme
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
on your relevant machines would show.
I opted for the best SSD available for my purism librem13v4 at the time,
and was really happy with seems like 10x faster than the SATA SSD in my older
but still i7 x86_64 previous laptop. Prob really 4-5x faster.
So above combo command line now gives me
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
SIZE MODEL TYPE TRAN VENDOR NAME
465.8G Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500GB disk nvme nvme0n1
01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd NVMe SSD Controller SM981/PM981
$
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
What /is/has been/ on your machines? Could your improved times be part from SSD/controller changes?
There's really a huge difference between SATA and 4-lane pci
(where both ends can handle it, which may require fw update or not be available)
Obviously 4 lanes is also going to be faster than one.
