NVMe VPS vs SATA SSD — Real Speed Difference for WordPress

TL;DR

NVMe drives offer much higher IOPS and lower latency than SATA SSD. For WordPress/WooCommerce, this means faster database queries, lower TTFB and snappier checkout.

What improves with NVMe?

• Database-heavy pages reduce waiting time (queries return faster).
• WooCommerce product filters and checkout feel more responsive.
• Cron jobs and backups complete quicker, freeing resources.

Benchmarks (Indicative)

• Read latency: NVMe ~20-100μs vs SATA ~80-200μs
• Random IOPS: NVMe easily 5x+ vs typical SATA SSD
• Observed TTFB improvements: 10–30% (theme/plugin dependent)

Who benefits most?

Stores, membership sites and any DB-centric app. If you run WooCommerce with many products/filters, NVMe can be a game-changer.
