Intel Optane SSD 905P
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- my favorite game (UE4 engined) is notorious for its pop-ins and in this one regard the 905p nearly eliminates that aggravation for a single title that is particularly bad... even for the Urinal Engine v4.
- Scratch drive for video editing? Absolutely... it has no peer with stupidly large file handling. Shuffling a shit ton of small files to and fro? Words fail to describe how bad the ass kicking the 905p give Sn850x 8TB and 4TB drives once...
- Booting windows or Linux? Yeah, it's without a doubt snappier at any point while starting up and after log in (particularly pronounced difference in feel vs NANDflash drjcd).
Cons
- Also, the insane optane speeds of yesteryear are a lot slower than modern NVME ssds. Your specific optane drive has 2600 MB/s read and 2200 MB/s write. Your new 4tb T710 has 14,500 MB/s reads and 13,800 MB/s writes. They're not even close.
- Unless you make a habit of copying over large chunk of files, probably not. Optane is made for a different era.
- No. And it will probably be near end of life anyways.

Scratch drive for video editing? Absolutely... it has no peer with stupidly large file handling. Shuffling a shit ton of small files to and fro? Words fail to describe how bad the ass kicking the 905p give Sn850x 8TB and 4TB drives once you start transferring gigs of sub megabytes files.
