I think he was getting out how you said a faster SSD INCREASES start times, so he was asking if a slower one would have the opposite effect of reducing them, since you don't actually want higher start times.

Basically he did a bad job of trying to say you made a mistake lol

Ah, touche .... weeeelll I mean increase in the sense of it being relative to performance, as in an increase in performance. But yes, let me change that writing a bit.

you can buy pcie or sata to USB 3 adapter case from any China online shop and make your own damn fast usb 3.0+ USB SSD for under 20$...And yes, it will be as fast as your max USB speed is.

Probably going to look a lot like those M.2 kits I'd guess, then again that's pretty much all SSD's really, circuitry with memory modules on them and then some stuff for other bits and pieces. (I'm no expert on how they're built but I guess it's fairly similar other than how they're plugged in, something for the cache, something for the firmware and then something for whatever interface it's using.)

EDIT: Sounds far simpler than HDD's really although manufacturing is probably still a bit complicated and well everything seems to want those memory modules driving prices up while devising techniques for lowering costs and increasing storage. (SLC, MLC, TLC and now QLC or how it was called, drawback being overall "life" of the SSD unit though it's probably still fairly good even if the numbers are drastically lowered on paper.)

You might have more luck getting recognizable pieces using a Dremel.
