True but also not really the case. For games like bloodborne, Just cause 3...etc or any other game that employs a system where chunks of the game are loaded at a time and what you are looking at is a loading screen, SATA 3 support and with an SSD will make a world of difference. Almost cut such load times down to about half. for games that stream data in mostly, the best this may yield is less pop in but that's another matter. 

But how big are those chunks? If they're anything less than 1GB it will not make a world of difference.

It's hard to discuss these topics on gaming forums because only a few people understand the tech.

Apparently they only go by the high numbers and expect half the time that the ps4 has with an ssd because of the sata2 interface. 

Mind, it could be better because

1. Strangely the SATA on ps4 was routed through USB

2. The faster CPU could mean that the work on the data that gets transferred to the CPU is getting processed faster.
