Intel Optane Memory With 3D XPoint Review

HotHardware has posted an evaluation of Intel's Optane Memory With 3D XPoint today.


Intel Optane Memory is designed to accelerate the storage subsystem on compatible machines, to improve transfer speeds and reduce latency. It is among the first products to leverage 3D XPoint memory technology that was co-developed by Intel and Micron. 3D XPoint offers many of the same properties as NAND flash memory, but with much higher endurance and certain performance characteristics that are similar to DRAM.
