Things might seem a little different in this review, at least for readers who are familiar with my storage reviews here at eTeknix. There is a very good reason for that and that is that this is a different kind of storage drive.
Since it’s currently only available through OEMs and not seperate, Intel sent me a notebook with the drive installed. They also sent me a normal NVMe SSD with the same OS setup which I can add to my usual bench system. This allows me to compare the two and show you how they relate to each other.
The charts on the following pages contain 3 drives or modes. One with the Optane Memory H10 and Optane mode enabled, one with the same drive and Optane mode disabled. The last is with the Intel SSD 760p NVMe SSD mentioned above.
As I explained on the previous pages, Intel Optane works different than other SSDs with a different focus area. I’ve still added most tests that I usual do to give you the best possible comparison. Even if it isn’t the intended area of operation, you and the rest of our readers might like to know. I’m also a firm believer in doing things well. I run as many tests as I can and that could be relevant to readers.
