Unreasonably expensive
Requires at least a 7th Gen Core platform and an M.2 slot
Optimal transfer speed, read and write speed, delivers what promised
Limited 32GB memory
Considering the performance, better than Intel claim, and price, the Optane is one of the perfect choices to upgrade your PC or Laptop. But, only 32 GB module is not enough, as OS can consume more than 10 GB spaceIntel announced its Optane memory module...
Significant speed gains for PCs with just a hard drive
Unreasonably expensive, Requires at least a 7th Gen Core platform and an M.2 slot, No benefit for PCs with an SSD
While Optane is a fascinating new technology development and gives us a tantalising glimpse of the future, it is nowhere near its promised potential yet. In a world without SSDs, Optane Memory would do exactly what it is supposed to, but right now, its ap...

Abstract: This Feature Was Sponsored By GigabyteWhen it comes to improving the performance of your system, there are lots of things you can do. The obvious ones are upgrading your CPU, GPU and RAM. These impact performance within applications, games and more. Howev...
Severe performance improvement for large HDD users, Low access times, Improved productivity, Durable,
Not as useful for SSD owners as it is for HDD users, “Intel’s Optane Module can inject a performance to your large capacity drive which you hadn’t dreamed of.”, Intel Optane 32GB M.2 Memory Module Review, We would like to thank, Intel, for providing us w
Pricing and AvailabilityThe 32GB Intel Optane M.2 module I tested today can be yours for £74.32 or $77.99 while the smaller 16GB module will set you back £43.30 or $45.37.OverviewCombining two types of storage to increase the performance is in no way a ne...

Very fast read performance, Adds massive performance improvements to a standard hard disk
CPU and chipset restrictions, Write performance as a stand-alone drive is disappointing
The major fly in the ointment with the Optane Memory module is the official restrictions it currently comes with, which will be a limiting factor on its use. It only supports Kaby Lake processors and then only Core i7, i5 and i3 parts. There's no current...
Low cost, Intelligent Acceleration, Versatile with supported and unsupported configurations, A real performance option for HDDs
Limited chipset support, Some software improvements required, Small capacities
Optane Memory is a complicated topic with a simple execution. If you follow the supported configurations to build an Optane Memory enabled system it will reward you with a fast storage volume that has the capacity of a spinning disk. £75.00 Suggest...

Wow.Okay there are a few caveats when it comes to which setup and scenario the Intel Optane Memory can shine the brightest, but if we are simply looking at whether it does its job when paired with the right hardware then it is an undeniable yes. Outstandi...

Abstract: It isnt only the junk processor that makes a really cheap computer slow. Or the memory or the video card (or lack of video card). The primary reason your cheap laptop loudly chugs along at glacial speeds is because of the hard drive. Cheap laptops use ch...

Abstract: 3D XPoint (pronounced "crosspoint," not "ex-point") is a promising form of non-volatile memory jointly developed by Intel and Micron. Intel claims that the memory, which it's branding Optane for commercial products, provides a compelling mix of propertie...
Simple, no-frills installation process, Outstanding performance gains, especially to HDD-equipped systems, It's the fastest (lowest latency) thing we've ever tested. Period. (yes, again)
Requires current generation motherboard, preventing upgrades to older systems, Cost (see below), Too small to use as a boot SSD
I knew XPoint was going to enable all sorts of performance gains to storage systems, but I honestly did not expect Optane Memory to net such large benefits and to do it so well. While previous hybrid/caching technologies have been decent, the outstanding...
