Intel officially names this device “Optane memory H10 with solid state storage.” It’s much easier to think of it as a hybrid drive, or two drives in one. On one half of the M.2 stick, Intel ...

Intel launched its Optane product family in 2017 built around a new type of memory technology, 3D XPoint, co-developed with Micron. 3D XPoint is non-volatile like NAND, meaning it retains data ...

Intel announced that they are winding down their Optane memory business during their most recent quarterly report. At the 2022 Flash Memory Summit, Intel’s announcement led to lots of discussion ...

Together, Intel Optane memory and a 7th Gen Intel Core processor give you a snappy computer experience with short boot times, fast application launches, extraordinary gaming, and responsive browsing.

While Intel touts the ability for Optane Memory to accelerate slower SSDs as well as HDDs, the latter is the most common use case. For most real-world use cases, Optane Memory performs as advertised.

Intel’s Optane Memory H20 features 32GB of 2nd generation Optane media, paired to 1TB (or 512GB) of Intel's latest 144-layer QLC NAND flash memory, with a new Optane controller as well.

Intel lists the Optane Memory H10 with up to 2,400 MB/s sequential read and 1,800 MB/s sequential writes. Intel didn't list maximum random performance in our documentation but shows queue depth ...

Intel asserts that games can launch up to 67 percent faster with Intel Optane Memory. I ran Fallout 4 for my game boot test. After disabling the initial loading animations by editing the .ini ...

Intel Optane Memory would give that mainstream user the same or better performance as an SSD, with the capacity advantage of the 1TB or 2TB drive they’re used to.

Today, Intel announced Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory. This is a series of DDR4 memory sticks (with capacities of 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB) that use 3D XPoint instead of traditional DRAM cells.

Unlike the P4800X, Intel is letting reviewers get hold of Optane Memory or at least something close to it: the part we received was branded "engineering sample," with no retail branding or packaging.
