    These are on their way out anyway. M.2 or PCIe is the way.

      They're not going anywhere until motherboards start shipping with more M.2 slots

        and that basically means bigger mobos and bigger cases. so complete opposite of what industry wants right now to desperately deprecate tower pcs in favor of arm sbcs and laptops

      neither of those are properly hot-swappable like SATA is.
      can't they come up with something better?

        sata is not hot-swappable either. have you actually tried plugging a sata cable in and out while the PC is running? it will not recognize the drive when it's plugged back in

          Yes, it is.

          That doesn't mean your OS will play nice with it, or that you have it enabled in your motherboard's BIOS.

          My side panel is off 24/7 and I plug and unplug drives while the pc is on. Nothing bad has happened

      If it was greed, the maker would save precious fractions of shekels on the plastic material by making it smaller.

    Because it is a standard form factor.
    Did you complain about WD Raptor HDDs that have smaller diameter platters? No? Because you're dumb.
