Nope:  its all been documented within this thread by posts you made.


BTW, there's also a follow-up question to something that you said a few 
posts earlier on this subthread fork.

Here's the extract:

My observation is that it depends on what the workflow use case needs 
are for if two drives are better (or needed) vs one, as well as if these 
are better (or worse) served by both being internal vs 
internal/external, etc.

For example, contemplate the baseline 3-2-1 data backup strategy of 
having three backup copies at all times, preferably over two mediums, 
and having at least one be remote site located.  FYI, 'remote site' is 
to mitigate single point failure risks such as a home fire destroying 
everything. Ditto lightning strikes if all are continuously plugged in.

So for a home user, what's the hardware solution for rotating a backup 
copy to a remote site?  The main simple options today are either to:

a) pay $$ to rent Cloud storage,
or
b) an external hard drive: unplug and sneaker-net it to the remote.


A common trade-off on option (a) is one's ISP:  bandwidth speed 
limitations and monthly quota restrictions may interfere.

For option (b), if you want to have an internal bay instead of an 
external HDD, that's fine ... but you're now looking at having to shut 
down your entire PC, opening the case, and yanking out this internally 
installed drive for each transfer to remote.  How frequently will 
depends on your risk tolerance...a common best practice IIRC is weekly.

In fairness, since a Mac system is unlikely to dual-boot, compared to
a PC, the hardware from Apple isn't totally terrible.  My machine
isn't really different, it just divides the SoC into different parts.
It's just that if I had some need for Windows, I would be able to
install it comfortably, or if I wanted to have a second modern drive
for some other reason.

Why are you focused on dual booting as the only reason to have more than 
one drive?

I wrote above that it might be other reasons, but it's a reason that
matters when you don't want to share one drive between OSes.

Where "isn't totally terrible" is stuff that's 30%-300% faster than your 
supposedly 'high end' system.

If one wants to run Windows, just do it in a VM.  BTDT.

Which will just need to be on an 'external PCIe' instead of internal.

Or use network attached storage.  If you don't want to buy a NAS, see if 
your OS allows for sharing directories and use an old PC as a host.  And 
if you think its visually unappealing, put it in another room.

Was the iMac or Mac mini of 2021 so much faster than mine?

I could use Wine under Linux or an Intel Mac, but the Parallels
solution is great for Apple Silicon, why not, you've paid so much for
a MacBook Pro or pimped out other hardware from them, you can
certainly boot a VM of Winblows.

I can have a second NVMe.  I wanted that to be possible.  I might not
really have the slightest use for it, but it's part of having a real
motherboard, I wanted the one I got for a reason.

When you've already trivialized the $200 cost of an Windows license and 
a $100 video card, the cost of buying some software is in the same lane.

But you're not unique:  I already have a second & third NVMe attached, 
and they has performance parity with your PCIe 3 open slot, plus as an 
external, it is more convenient for sneakernet, remote site backup, etc. 
  Plus I actually have a workflow use case need for them, not a "wanna".

Post benchmarks on your system then.  Something that looks like this 
test I did way back in 2015;

<http://www.huntzinger.com/gallery/index.php/Misc/blackmagic-3GB-2015-07-22-OWC>

Make sure to also include an NVMe benched on the open slot that's on the 
slower PCIe 3 bus that you've been saying is your 'future expansion'.

Joel's acting as though Thunderbolt 3 wasn't great already:

* bandwidth of a PCIe 3.0 x4 is 4 gigabytes per second = 4 GB/.

* Thunderbolt 3's bandwidth is 4000 MB/s = 5 GB/s.

And 2024 Macs have TB5, which means 10 GB/sec bandwidth, enabling
an external SSD to perform like a 2TB internal Apple OEM SSD from
a 2020 vintage Mac Studio.
