The editors didn't like
Higher price than normal NAND drives
Low capacity options when compared to other drives
“You might pay a little more for this drive than you would for any other SSD with the same capacity
But it’s definitely worth the extra. I’m thoroughly impressed.”
“Intel’s Optane SSD 800p is a truly impressive drive. It costs a little more than traditional drives
But it delivers the performance where it truly matters.”

Intel Optane SSD 800P M.2 PCIe SSD RAID Review
Thanks to
For providing us with these sample drives
Low capacity
Expensive
Degraded performance possible under heavy workloads
In principle, Intel is once more putting the potential of their 3D XPoint technology on display. But that "once more" is precisely the problem with the Optane 800P— the technology offers a high level of data consistency and unrivaled data transfer speeds...

Abstract: Last month Intel launched the Optane SSD 800P series as a step below the ultra-fast Optane 900P solid-state drives but still a big step ahead of other SSD options like the Intel 760p series. Here are our first Linux performance benchmarks of the Optane 80...

The Optane SSD 800p is the closest that Intel has come to offering a 3D XPoint-based product for the mainstream consumer market. Unlike the Optane Memory M.2, the 800p is available in capacities that allow it to be used as ordinary storage. Unlike the pre...

Outstanding responsiveness (low QD random performance), Highest capacity Optane in an M.2 form factor to date
Price is very high (see below), Performance is held back by PCIe 3.0 x2 interface, Capacities are smaller than many power users would desire

Fast with non-queued small file reads, Outstanding longevity
Slow sustained writes for an NVMe drive, Four times the cost of the NAND-based competition
In spite of its high price, the previously reviewed 900P, with its stellar performance and virtual lifetime guarantee, is a tempting buy for enthusiasts. The 800P, on the other hand, is most decidedly not. In pricey RAID combinations, its longevity might...
The Intel Optane SSD 800P series offers impressive performance and does not require a custom Windows driver. At first we liked that, but then we found out that you can't change the Windows cache buffer settings for the Intel Optane SSD 800P series, so it...
