an interface is a logical connection that enables data transfer between devices. There are different types of interfaces that can connect SSD drives to the storage array controller, such as SATA, SAS, PCIe, and NVMe.

One of the types of interface that can connect SSD drives to the storage array controller is NVMe1. NVMe stands for Non-Volatile Memory Express and it is a protocol that enables high-performance communication between SSDs and PCIe bus. NVMe reduces latency and increases throughput by using multiple parallel queues and direct memory access.
