The editors liked
Outstanding responsiveness and performance where it matters most
Outstanding endurance (especially for a client SSD)
Free Star Citizen access and ship
Low queue depth performance
Reasonable price points
Unbound storage
Far faster than any traditional NAND-based SSD in some tests
Particularly excels at small file reads and writes for fast boot and program load times
Extremely high endurance rating
Awesome Performance Where It Matters Most
Extreme Endurance
Multiple Form Factors
Blazingly fast
100 times the rated endurance of NAND SSDs
Stunning IOPs numbers
The editors didn't like
Cost is a bit higher than enthusiasts might be used to
'Max' performance figures feel held back by the controller
Capacity
Where Is VROC
Lags behind less expensive Samsung M.2 drives in sequential performance
Bulky form factor means no laptop compatibility
Low capacity limits appeal for video editors or other high-end content creators
Bottom Line
Intel's first consumer Optane SSD offers an enticing taste of the future of storage
But cramped capacities
High prices
And form factor limitations mean the 900P Series
Though packed with potential
Is best suited to a narrow swath of desk
Pricey
Relatively Low Capacities (For Now)
Rougly twice the price of the average NVMe/PCIe SSD
For some, Intel's Optane SSD 900p will have an immediate, palpable impact. If you work with massive datasets in a workstation environment, this product doesn't even have competition. For the rest of us enthusiasts, it's really fast too, but its impact...
Conclusion - Unbelievably Fast, Completely LimitedThe Intel 900P SSD is easily the most difficult to judge and assess non-volatile storage device I have seen in many, many years. Make no mistake about it, this is a golden god of performance that all other...
"The 900P series isn't cheap, coming in at around three-fold an equivalently sized NVMe NAND SSD but if you do anything that thrashes the disk or need the perfect scratch disk the 900P depending on the task can deliver that 300% worth of price in raw perf...
The Optane SSD 900 P is aimed mainly at the enthusiast and hardcore gamer consumers. Ordinary users will not need the kind of performance it offers. And the price is another great limiting factor. The SSDs are available at rates that are reminiscent of pr...

Abstract: Some people get their PC kicks from gaming, some from watching high-resolution multimedia, other from balancing the books (go figure). Us? Give us an SSD that measures performance in gigabytes per second. And if you want to make our Saturday night, give u...

Random 4K read performance at low queue depths, Endurance, Performance stability
Expensive, Sequential performance not as strong as the random performance
The Optane 900p is basically the consumer equivalent of the enterprise-focused Optane P4800X, aimed at high-end desktop and workstation usage. It has been designed to deliver consistently high random performance, particularly reads, at very low queue dept...

Now that the prices of SSDs are starting to fall again, the competition is starting to take off again. Especially the new models from Crucial and Samsung bring some life back to the business, which was badly needed in this market. Last year there were few...
Unfortunately, like most new technology, the Optane 900P is here well before you can use it to the fullest. Hard disk drives continue to stifle progress because they are still used in high-volume OEM systems. Like it or not, your shiny new operating syste...
Cet Optane 900P d'Intel est tout simplement une petite bombe. Certes, il n'est pas forcément le plus rapide sur le séquentiel, mais alors dans les autres taches, il excelle. Un SSD qui propose des performances solides et qui est souvent très très efficace...
