As far as I know, SSDs are closer to 0.1 ms latency (~10,000 random read IOPS at zero queue depth). That's still an improvement of more than an order of magnitude, though (0.009 ms according to the article).

100micro-seconds on writes.

Reads are as low as 20micro-seconds [1] This is using an Samsung 860pro, so a generation behind the current generation.

There was never a 860 pro, we had 850 pro (2.5" SATA) and then 950 and 960 pro which are m.2 only afaik (and nvme)
