Asus released BIOS updates for its 200-series motherboards to add support for Intel Optane memory technology. Optane is Intel’s brand name for products using the 3D XPoint technology it co-developed with Micron. Its goal is to establish a new “storage-class memory” category that offers better performance and endurance than NAND while also being denser and […]
It is around two years ago when Intel and Micron jointly launched 3D XPoint, last week Intel officially launched the P4800X last week, and this week they are officially launching Optane Memory. We have a slide deck we are allowed to some of the things we can look forward to once the new tech starts […]
A new series of solid-state drives (SSD) from Intel target data centers looking to deploy advanced applications with heavy database demands. The Optane SSD DC P4800X Series can provide either “blazing fast” storage or cache support for databases, according to the company. Intel’s latest SSD series is built on the 3D XPoint non-volatile computing memory […]
Intel has updated it website with now Optane landing page that discusses the first iteration of ‘Intel Optane Memory’, which appears to be the 8000p Series. The site does not cover the upcoming enterprise parts like the 375GB P4800X. The site focuses on the far smaller 16GB and 32GB ‘System Accelerator’ M.2 modules. While only two […]
Intel announced its newest Xeon E7-8800/4800 v4 Broadwell-EX series of processors. The Broadwell-EX E7 v4 series features an additional QPI lane to increase scalability compared to the E5-2600 v4 Xeons increases the LLC (Last Level Cache) to 60 MB and the core count to 24 (an increase over the 18-core maximum found with the previous-generation […]
Intel’s been quiet about its super-fast Optane memory and SSD products, but a few emerging details may hint at how they could be used in products like Apple’s MacBooks. Optane is a brand name for a new type of memory and SSD based on 3D Xpoint, a technology jointly developed by Intel and Micron that […]
Rob Crooke, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group at Intel, penned a blog post that defines a tectonic shift in Intel’s future non-volatile memory strategy. Intel is expanding its Dalian fab, which has been in operation since 2010, to produce its new 3D NAND and the revolutionary 3D XPoint. […]
Intel announced it will roll out its new 3D XPoint memory standard in SSDs under the brand name Optane. The new category of non-volatile memory technology was unveiled in July, and Intel claimed it to be a “revolutionary breakthrough” in the industry. However, at that stage little was known about the technology, or when it would […]
