Intel Optane 905P with 1.5 TB Is Released (updated)
Intel is now offering an update to the Optane 900P, the Optane 905P with 1.5TB storage. That makes three storage versions and one PCIe SSD with Intel logo Blue colored LEDs, the other a U2 model.
It seems that the volume sizes will be different from the current 900p models, the specs for the Optane SSD 905P overall are also slightly different. Among things, the Idle power consumptions will be rising from 2 towards 7 Watts, which is not a good thing at all. Deeper specs for performance and precise volume sizes, however, are lacking at this time aside for a mentioned 960GB (at ~1349 USD) and 480GB (at ~599 USD) model. Though pricing is not listed we can do the math easily, expect it to be 2099 ~ 2299 USD.

i'm in love with the
i'm in love with the
potential
of Optane. the reality at these ridiculous prices is another. and that power rating is scorching for an M.2 for those without one of the new mobos with beefy heat sinks.

So these things are SSD's? I didn't even know what the hell optane was. Figured it was just some seriously overpriced server tech being pushed on consumers. Oh wait...

If you don't want it or need it, don't buy it
For me, 900p is perfect and I love it

The 900P is pretty insane, put one in my son's gaming system, performance is incredible.
The 905P is going into my next workstation build as the OS/app drive. Once its built I will post up some benchmarks and impressions.

Am I the only one wondering how that M.2 version is going to fit on most MoBo's, considering how wide it is?

Yeah, not so sure about that. Another issue with Optane is the massive size of the "good" drives. It makes it impossible (at this time) to make a M.2 Optane drive that has both great capacity and industry standard size.

That's a U.2 not M.2.
Pretty clear from pics and specs.
Can be mounted on an M.2 slot only with an adapter.

ahem...industrial design for the enthusiast market, yet priced for the professional.
i guess there is a larger market for 4k video editing and compiling than i thought.
i'd buy one of these tout suite if it was under $600

Now you can still use the u.2 with m.2 cable/adapter, thats how the 480gb version sold (one of the three versions).

From the tests I've seen Optane is quite impressive but that price continues to be a important factor though it'll be fun to see reviews of these new models once they're available.
(Hampered a bit by Intel being a bit indifferent to Europe and sending stuff over here for review purposes though as I understand it.)
