What I want to know is if this is the beginning of the end of the SATA era. Once one major player leaves, others are sure to follow, and soon quality no longer matters, and finally the tech atrophies. I don't want to be forced to have my spinning platters connected via NVMe and a series of connector adapters.

I want to build a mini PC-based 3D printed NAS box with a SATA backplate with that exact NVME connector adapter setup!

The reality is, as long as you have PCIe you can do pretty much whatever you want, and it's not a big deal.
