The initial <i>NVM</i> stands for <i><a href="/wiki/Non-volatile_memory" title="Non-volatile memory">non-volatile memory</a></i>, which is often NAND <a href="/wiki/Flash_memory" title="Flash memory">flash memory</a> that comes in several physical form factors, including <a href="/wiki/Solid-state_drive" title="Solid-state drive">solid-state drives</a> (SSDs), PCIe add-in cards, and <a href="/wiki/M.2" title="M.2">M.2</a> cards, the successor to <a href="/wiki/MSATA" class="mw-redirect" title="MSATA">mSATA</a> cards. NVM Express, as a logical-device interface, has been designed to capitalize on the low <a href="/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_performance_characteristics#Access_time" title="Hard disk drive performance characteristics">latency</a> and internal parallelism of solid-state storage devices.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Architecturally, the logic for NVMe is physically stored within and executed by the NVMe controller chip that is physically co-located with the storage media, usually an SSD.
