That's why manufacturers have been using Embedded MultiMediaCards or eMMCs from the beginning since they are faster and more power-efficient compared to other storage solutions available at the time. However, there are certain limitations to eMMC storage. For example, the latest generation eMMC memory can only go up to 128GB and operate up to 600MB/s. Unlike eMMC storage which uses a Parallel interface, UFS uses what's called an LVDS Serial Interface. While an eMMC storage can only read or write at any given time, UFS can perform both tasks simultaneously with its two lanes. As a result, UFS storage can reach speeds much faster than eMMC can.
