Overview
The Intel Optane Memory M10 series is a low-capacity add-on SSD that is specifically designed to improve the performance of existing storage devices (conventional hard drives) in computers. It uses Intel's Optane or 3D XPoint memory, which offers faster access times compared to traditional NAND-based solid-state drives.
The Intel Optane Memory M10 series is available in capacities of 16GB to 64GB and can be easily installed on compatible motherboards with an M.2 slot. Once installed, it works in conjunction with existing storage devices to accelerate system boot times, application loading, and overall system responsiveness.
Overall, the Intel Optane Memory M10 series is intended as an efficient solution for users looking to boost their computer's performance without having to invest in a full-fledged SSD upgrade. It should offer a noticeable improvement in speed and responsiveness, as compared to just using a mechanical hard drive.

“Intel's 3D XPoint memory is clearly a far better media for small cache drives than NAND flash, but it is still afflicted by a very high price per GB.”
