Apple picker Commercial message: A slow computer can really freak most of us out. Fortunately, this problem can be solved elegantly with the revolutionary new Intel Optane Memory. It is an intelligent cache memory that will give your slow HDD a second lease of life and bring it almost to the level of fast SSD drives. Intel Optane partially capacitively replaces RAM memory, but after turning off or restarting the PC, it retains the stored data. The most frequently used applications are stored on this gadget from the HDD, thanks to which the entire system speeds up significantly and the launch of individual applications is shortened to a minimum.

| Sequential writing | 145 MB / s | 290 MB / s |
| Random reading | 190 IOPS | 240 IOPS |
| Random write | 35 IOPS | 65 IOPS |
| Consumption | 3,5 W | 3,5 W |
| Maximum data written | 182,5 TB | 182,5 TB |
| Format | M.2 | M.2 |
| Interface | PCIe NVMe 3.0 x2 | PCIe NVMe 3.0 x2 |
| Price | 889 CZK | 1539 CZK |
As you can see for yourself, the parameters of Intel Optane Memory are not bad at all. But the big attraction of this product is undoubtedly its price. If you decide to upgrade your HDD to an SSD, you will pay several times more. This revolutionary innovation will save you thousands of crowns and thanks to it you will feel that your computer is actually equipped with an SSD disk.
It starts faster than you can say cobbler
But now let's move on to the practical examples themselves. It is they who could convince you that investing in Intel Optane Memory, which will give your HDD a second lease of life, is really worth it, as it will save you a lot of time. A great example is the very start of a computer with Windows 10, which is needed for functionality. While the Alzy test computer it took 58,6 seconds to start with the HDD, the combination of HDD + Intel Optane Memory made the computer start up faster to 10,5 seconds.
You might also be interested in games, which, of course, also run significantly faster thanks to this gadget from Intel. For example, the game World of Warcraft, which is still incredibly popular all over the world, can be accessed with a classic HDD in about 107 seconds after clicking the icon, but the combination of HDD + Intel Optane Memory can do it in a very respectable 58 seconds. If this time difference didn't convince you significantly, launching the shooter Battlefield 3 certainly will. It takes 287,9 seconds to launch on the HDD, while with Intel Optane Memory your computer with the HDD can do it in less than half - 134,1 seconds to be exact.
But you will also appreciate the revolutionary innovation from Intel in your professional life, if you use, for example, software from Adobe. When testing Photoshop, Optane Memory once again showed how significantly it can reduce time, especially in the heavy load test, where it is able to save literally minutes. You can see the results of Adobe software tests in the gallery below this paragraph.

However, it would be a mistake to think that only people working with sophisticated software or players of demanding games will use Optane Memory. Even something as basic as PowerPoint, Word and Excel from the Office package can be significantly accelerated. Tests of these three things also confirmed that Optane Memory is able to save tens of seconds when using these applications. You can view the details again in the gallery.

What to say in conclusion? Definitely, it is a real revolution that can save you a lot of money and time. The view of classic HDD disks could change significantly thanks to this novelty, as they will come closer to the "royal" SSD disks, behind which they have been significantly lagging behind until now. In addition, the cache seems to work really well, so you don't have to worry about not knowing the difference if you buy a smaller capacity. The RST driver software, which is used for control, has really succeeded. However, a small flaw in an otherwise really perfect product is its compatibility, which is limited only to Intel processors from the Kaby Lake and Coffee Lake series, and to the Windows 10 operating system. But if you meet these requirements, you should definitely not miss Intel Optane Memory . Faster Počítač whether notebook you will definitely appreciate it.
"A minor flaw on an otherwise truly perfect product"
Excellent :-D Why be modest.
Great, so on the website about Apple you offer (anything for money) something that can't actually be used in Apple products. I wonder what you will advertise next
What does maximum written data mean? It's like if I write the 180TB, then it goes away?
