Is SATA fast compared to an SD card these days? Recently, when I've worked with newer SD cards (UHS-I and faster) I've been quite impressed with the speed in practice... and I've been hitting fsync at the end, so it's not just the speed of the cache. It no longer feels like I'm working with removable storage.
UHS-III works with Micro SD cards and it's supposed to give you 624 MB/s. SATA 3.0 is supposed to give 6.0 Gbit/s, or 750 MB/s.
That's only 20% faster. I'm sure the real number is different due to overhead, but how different can it be?
I'm not going to be shocked by low Switch performance, since the Switch is basically an obsolete mid-range phone, in terms of specs.
