NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a protocol that defines how data is transferred between the SSD and the computer, offering faster speeds than older protocols like SATA. M.2 is a physical form factor for SSDs, which can use either NVMe or SATA protocols. So, NVMe refers to speed and data transfer technology, while M.2 refers to the SSD's shape and connector type.
