“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

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
Intel Optane or 3D XPoint is one of those rare gems that was announced and actually turned into something worthwhile. We were impressed with the real-world performance of the first round of memory modules, but it left us wanting to go entirely Optane and...

SharetweetREPORT SUMMARY AND FINAL THOUGHTSThe strength of Intel XPoint memory media cannot be shown any better at the consumer level than through the products Intel has introduced since the distribution of XPoint got the go ahead. We started with Intel O...

Higher capacity, but still a small SSD, Incredible random read performance
Low capacity, Expensive, Degraded performance possible under heavy workloads
The Optane SSD 800P 118GB is the largest 8-series product, but it still lacks the capacity to entice most enthusiasts. The performance is lower than we expected. Combined low capacity and lower-than-expected performance mean we will leave this one on...
We believe that Intel accomplished exactly what they set out to do with the Optane SSD 800P - bring Optane to the masses. The Optane SSD 800P is appealing because it is relatively affordable. It is appealing because it is a single sided M.2 design. No nee...
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...

Staggering random read speed, Very high rated endurance
Very low capacities, Unimpressive write speeds, Exorbitant prices,
The Intel Optane SSD 800p isn't the holy grail we were shown glimpses of in 2015. It doesn't come anywhere close to reinventing the PC. However, it is a tantalising taste of how that vision might play out over the next few years. Intel's SSD 800p series i...
Consistent performer, Excellent 4K read speeds, High speeds post conditioning
Expensive, Capacities are too low
The Intel Optane SSD 800p is a great contender in the SSD space. It's unique since Intel is the only one with the Optane technology and they're aggressively pushing for it across their platforms. With not many capacity options, it would seem that Intel is...
