Intel Optane Memory H10 specifications released, combines Optane and QLC 3D NAND

Intel today revealed details about its Optane memory H10 with solid-state storage. This is a big step for the company since it combines the responsiveness of Intel Optane technology with the storage capacity of Intel Quad Level Cell (QLC) 3D NAND technology in a single space-saver M.2 form factor. This, in turn, enables Intel Optane memory expansion into thin and light notebooks and certain space-constrained desktop form factors – such as all-in-one PCs and mini PCs. Additionally, it also offers a higher level of performance and eliminates the need for a secondary storage device. When compared to a standalone TLC 3D NAND SSD system, Intel Optane memory H10 with solid-state storage enables both faster access to frequently used applications and files and better responsiveness with background activity.
