Caching solution for platter hard drives that shows measurable gains, Easy to set up (with BIOS caveat below),
For end users, pricey versus the cost of a low-capacity SSD boot drive, Works only with "Kaby Lake" platform, and 200-series chipsets, May require a motherboard BIOS update
Optane Memory speeds up PCs by caching the bits you use most from your slow hard drive for faster access. It works, but only under Kaby Lake. For now, it will hold more appeal for PC OEMs than PC upgraders or builders...

Affordable, Significant Performance Improvement, Easy To Setup And Configure
Price Premium Over NAND, Compatibility Limited To Kaby Lake and 200-Series Chipsets
One of the other side benefits of the technology don't show in the benchmarks. We've gotten a little spoiled around here, so powering up our test rig with only a hard drive handling storage duties was a bit of an eye opener. Not only was system responsive...
Exceptional 4K file performance, Can rival high performance SSDs under some circumstances, Wipes out hard drive-only performance
Only works with Kaby Lake Core i3 and up CPUs, Performance drops once you burn through the cache, Would feel better if $15 lower in cost
Intel's Optane Module will make a world of difference for users stuck with traditional hard drives. Those drives must be in higher-end Kaby Lake systems running Windows 10, though...

Our review isn't without some ideas and concerns with respect to Intel Optane Memory. Two things we discovered during testing were how much more beneficial it may have been to include a higher capacity version, at least to 64GB, as well as to increase the...
Before I get into the "meat" of this conclusion, let's take a look at how Intel's 32GB Optane module stacks up in comparison to both the drives it is meant to compliment and those it may find itself competing against.SSD = Crucial MX300 275GB, HDD = WD Bl...

Abstract: It isn't the 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 cheap hard d...
As we explained and demonstrated Ad nauseam throughout the entirety of this review, it's all about 4K random read performance at QD1-2 in an OS environment. This is the exact opposite of what people always focus on - sequential performance. We've been pre...

There really is no short answer on what to think about Optane Memory, so I'll instead break it down by putting it against the competition.Optane memory vs. Samsung 960 Pro or similar high-performance SSD: Get the 960 Pro. Yes, there will be some situation...
