Innodisk at Computex 2023: Has the Right Idea About Gen 5 SSDs, to Make them AICs

It also makes sense from sales point to first introduce inefficient, power hungry models, maybe even add a bug or two that would convince at least some early adopters to buy a second drive in the same generation, when the later, better models arrive?

Careful there, you know how 3rd millenium quality assurance works, one or two become five or six before you can say "bug!", and that can hurt/delay the adoption of a new standard for an entire year or so.

Reminded today why I hate m.2 Took 20 mins to screw in m.2 wifi card. It didnt even start to screw so I had to get manual out and check if it still actually is a screw design, it is, so ended up just turning and turning until it caught, this was out the case as well lol, I deffo dont get on with tiny screws m.2

But seems finally ASRock doing something about this on a future board.

I think their solution is quite uninspired and worse, did they make sure the magnets won't interfere with anything on the motherboard at least? Screws are not great but I think a better replacement would some kind of snap on, not magnet for something you will install once and never move again for months on end
