The difference between this drive and Optane isn't huge. It is faster on a lot of benchmarks, competitive on others, and only is behind on two latency tests.

The biggest bottleneck in the current form factor is the OS which is why the Optane can match a ram drive in latency. Once Optane DIMMs will hit the market or once a dedicated access protocol will be developed for low latency non volatile storage will be developed and the OS won’t be as much of a bottleneck it would be much more useful.
