People are saying it being soldered down is a big disadvantage but I'm not following. The article says that M.2 spec will be available with PCIe or SATA interfaces and there is a photo of a Toshiba version on what looks like a small PCIe card. Aren't these the same as buying an existing card-based SSD?
If not, what is the relationship between all these interface types? Are they intended to be soldered onto the motherboard?
