    Prime day big discounts on M2 SSD drives today only

    I doubt they will get much faster than the current PS5 certified Gen 4 drives as those are already 7300 MB/s. That's shifting over 7GB/s. That's quite a mind blowing speed when you think about it.

    This is exactly thy way the CEO and top bosses of Eoyal Mail want to head. They want to get rid of Royal Mail staff delivering mail as postmen, and replace them with self employed owner drivers. So the level of service and care would far dramatically. I just don't get how a company can place...
