Intel prepares new ssd with memory 3d xpoint

Anonim

The giant intel wants to take a hit in the market for SSD mass storage devices and is preparing for it by finalizing new drives with a new memory technology that promises to make the NAND flash obsolete.

Intel's new Optane SSDs will build on the new 3D Xpoint memory and will arrive sometime in 2016 with up to 5x improvements in performance from current NAND memory-based SSDs. These new SSDs will arrive in M.2 / NGFF, SATA-Express and PCI-Express formats taking advantage of the NVMe protocol.

Micron Technology works together with Intel on the new 3D Xpoint memory so we should also see new units with this memory from Micron / Crucial.
