Also, with games getting pretty big these days the differences in load times aren't that small. We're talking reductions on the level of 50 seconds on a SATA SSD to less than 20 on a good PCIe one. With games also doing more and more streaming of higher LoD assets and whole parts of the map a high speed SSD reduces the pop-in effect this is vulnerable to. Worse yet, with previous generation consoles now starting to be abandoned by developers, more and more games that have been written specifically for current gen consoles are coming out. All of which* have a fast PCIe SSD.
