Intel has unveiled a new tier of Optane storage -- one designed to bridge the gap between volatile and non-volatile memory and create a new class of "Persistent" memory in the process. Share on ...

But what exactly is Optane, and what is it good for? (Analytics and AI, to name two major use cases.) If you’re not feeling up to speed, don’t worry. We’ll have you covered on all the basics in the ...

Optane has long occupied a kind of no man's land in personal computing, but Intel aims to change that with its latest drive. Known as 3D XPoint before the "Optane" rebrand, the technology exists as a ...

For years, Intel Optane seemed destined to reshape how we store data in computers. It promised to bridge the gap between blazing-fast RAM and practical storage, with latency and consistency that ...

Right now, we have lightning-fast RAM and massive NVMe SSDs, yet there is still a massive latency gap between them. For a few years, Intel Optane (3DX) filled that gap, promising the speed of memory ...

Intel is known for cranking up PC speeds to new highs, and it’s doing the same for storage with the super fast Optane. Optane, which Intel claims will replace today’s SSDs and DRAM, is exciting for ...

At CES this year, Intel announced its Optane H10 Memory Solution -- a novel idea for combining Optane and new, quad-level cell NAND on the same M.2 card. It's an adaptation of the same caching idea we ...

StorONE is revitalizing the all-flash array with its new All-Flash Array.next (AFAn) product that combines Intel Optane solid-state drives (SSDs) and Intel quad level cell (QLC) 3D NAND Storage Tiers.

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Solid-state drives offer much faster read and write speeds over their traditional hard drive counterparts. However, they're often limited in ...
