There is ~order of magnitude performance difference between regular(sata) ssd and fast nvme ssd. Sadly on pc there is very little practical difference, almost any ssd will do for gaming.
Will be tremendously interesting to see what optimizing for really fast ssd does for gaming on ps5.
Assuming ps5 ssd indeed is faster than pc we probably can assumes hundreds of thousands of operations per second and raw read speed in excess of 4GB/s. Ps4 hdd probably does something like 100MB/s and seek times limit heavily data access.
