 Oh, I don't have a Pi5, and though I kept hearing about 3rd party NVMe HATs and lack of official one
 

I guess I should get one, or maybe an alternative. I just bought a NVMe USB enclosure which has appalling performance

 Anyway, is it likely the write speeds are faster than the  read speeds? I know some enterprise SSDs come in "read mostly" or "write mostly" flavours, but for a Pi?

I can *envisage* a way in which writes are cached in DRAM pending a big enough chunk to actually erase and write a whole block of data, whilst reads are happening more or less without caching.
