Intel Optane Memory Series 16GB M.2 PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD

The INTEL Optane Memory Series 16GB module functions primarily as a system accelerator, leveraging proprietary 3D Xpoint technology instead of traditional NAND flash. This technology is optimized to reduce data access latency for frequently accessed files, improving overall system responsiveness, application loading times, and startup speed. The device utilizes a compact M.2 22 x 80mm form factor and connects using a PCIe 3.0 x2 NVMe interface for rapid data transfer protocols.

In terms of performance, the module registers sequential read speeds up to 900 MB/s and sequential write speeds reaching 145 MB/s. Critical performance indicators for system caching include a reported 7 µs read latency and 18 µs write latency, alongside 190,000 Random Read IOPS. Operational reliability is sustained by a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1,600,000 hours, supporting long-term, high-frequency caching demands.
