Overview
This document describes the specifications and capabilities of the Intel® Optane
TM
memory module. The Intel® Optane
TM
memory is a system acceleration solution developed for 7th Generation Intel® Core
TM
processor-based platforms. The
Intel® Optane
TM
memory module is architected with the high performance controller interface Non-Volatile Memory Express
(NVMe*)- delivering outstanding performance, low latency and quality of service. NVMe uses a standardized interface that
enables higher performance and lower latency than pervious interfaces. Intel® Optane
TM
memory module offers capacities of 16
GB and 32 GB in small M.2 form factors.
The Intel® Optane
TM
memory module offers a system acceleration solution using the latest Intel® Rapid Storage Technology
(Intel® RST) 15.5X.
The Intel® Optane
TM
memory module includes these key features:
● PCIe 3.0x2 with NVMe interface
● Uses Intel’s revolutionary new storage technology, 3D Xpoint
TM
memory media
● Ultra-low latency; exceptional responsiveness
● Performance saturation at queue depth of 4 and lower
● Very high endurance capabilities
