Why NVMe SSDs move hosting performance forward

NVMe drives bring an order-of-magnitude lower latency than classic SSDs. Let's see what that means for your site.

This is a placeholder article to illustrate the layout. The final content will be added later.

What makes NVMe different

Unlike SATA SSDs, NVMe drives talk directly over PCI Express, which brings:

  • Higher throughput for parallel operations
  • Lower latency on random reads
  • Better performance for database-heavy sites (e-shops, WordPress)

Where you’ll feel it

NVMe shows the most where there’s a lot of reading and writing - loading products, the cart, or search.

Fast storage is the foundation; everything else (cache, CDN) builds on top of it.

All our plans run on NVMe by default. Happy to answer questions at support@hostzone.eu.
