Does the M2 mini also have 1/2 the storage performance as the M1, like the Macbooks?

M1 base model has faster ssd speeds.
16gb ram and 1tb ssd needs to be the base model.

Do we think this gets lower? I'm bummed I missed the really cheap M1s. I have a home NAS running off of an old 12" MacBook with the low underpowered intel chip from like 2017 and it is struggling.

Sure if you had options to add storage besides USB which really is flaky for applications like hosting media.

I use the m1 version. Picked up for $250 used. $500 is a lot to you though?
