Intel's 32GB Optane Memory Storage Accelerator - Launch Day

Storage has always been a choke point in the modern PC and while storage systems like RAID, SSDs and PCI Express SSDs have made things better there is always room for improvement.

Intel has included a new storage technology called Optane into the new Z270 chipset and several sites have posted their review of the new technology just to see if it lives up to the hype.  Given that this is an Intel tech, maybe?

I find it funny that all of the review titles are super clickbait esq and yet say the same thing.  Its almost like they are trying to make it a "meh" tech but sound awesome at the same time.
