Not long after 2018, Intel and Samsung introduced several new SSDs.
According to PCworld reports, Intel's goal is to use Optane technology SSD products and cloud storage, so that mechanical hard drives disappear in the consumer market, that is, ordinary consumers will no longer consider buying a mechanical hard drive for local storage.
Among them, 58GB / 118GB M.2 Optane SSD 800P will be shipped in February, this year will also be based on Optane memory technology DRAM memory.
PW said that storage technology is AMD's gap, and Optane only Intel's latest chipsets, processors and other support for adoption, created a difference with AMD.Maybe Intel understands that in theory performance, AMD will catch up sooner or later, but In fact, Optane has long been a good coping law, so the situation will be, although AMD is getting stronger, but consumer computers Intel label products are more and more.
Of course, aiming for the future, Intel's goal is to have a 5G connected cloud PC anytime, anywhere. In accordance with the theoretical speed of 5G, and the current SATA hard drive transmission is similar, Therefore, Intel hopes that users will give the mechanical hard disk to the cloud, leaving only Optane to do local acceleration, which can be used for caching.
However, taking into account the 5G requires only large-scale commercial in 2020, the possibility of universal access, the above rendering of the vision will take some time to prepare.
