Reviews
This level of performance, in this capacity, and at this price, ensure this Optane SSD will only run in professional systems where storage performance is a bottleneck for specialized applications. – TweakTown
… Intel designed it to increase real-world performance by focusing on performance that matters. That often consists of mixed workloads at low queue depths, and the Intel 905P wins that contest every time. – TomsHardware
The one area where the Intel Optane 905P absolutely smashes all that comes before it is how this speed is utilised. – OC3D
