A Good NVME is 25 faster than a HDD and 5 Time than SSD. I have SSD for the Taichi with a Microsoft account , and I didn't want the BS from $$$soft so I just
ran on the HDD for 2 weeks. Plus its good to use another MB beside ASrock.

if you use windows 7 through 10, it's married to the motherboard so it's no issue to reinstall, it auto activates anyway.

You can get what you want. I know what the differences are just thought you were concerned about $$ and to me the better bang for buck would be SSD VS NVMe. Add to that Installing Win7 on NVMe takes drivers added to install

NVMe is 5 time faster than Sata 3 SSD for large files. Small files? Twice at best.

Unless you go for Optane...

NVMe is worth it (outside of having a nice new toy), if you work/transfer heavy photo/movies/music files in raw format.
