Storage
Your computer supports one of the following configurations:
• One M.2 2230/2242/2280 solid-state drive
• One M.2 2280 Intel Optane memory with solid-state storage
The primary drive of your computer varies with the storage configuration. For computers with an M.2 drive (either a solid-state drive or an
Intel Optane memory with solid-state storage), the M.2 drive is the primary drive.
Table 11. Storage specifications
Storage type Interface type Capacity
One M.2 2230/2242/2280 solid-state drive PCIe Gen3.0x4 NVMe, up to 32 Gbps Up to 1 TB
One M.2 Intel Optane memory with solid-state storage Solid-state storage: PCIe Gen3.0x2
NVMe, up to 16 Gbps
Up to 512 GB
Intel Optane memory with solid-state storage
(optional)
Intel Optane technology utilizes 3D XPoint memory technology and functions as a non-volatile storage cache/accelerator and/or storage
device depending on the Intel Optane memory installed in your computer.
Intel Optane memory with solid-state storage functions as both a non-volatile storage cache/accelerator (enabling enhanced read/write
speeds for hard-drive storage) and a solid-state storage solution. It neither replaces nor adds to the memory (RAM) installed on your
computer.
