Intel® Optane™ Technology: Just 2 years back in July, 2015, the Intel and Micron announced 3D XPoint, a non-volatile memory (NVM) technology. Bit storage is based on a change of bulk resistance, in conjunction with a stackable cross-gridded data access array. Initial prices are less than dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) but more than flash memory, as was expected prior to release. Development of 3D XPoint began around 2012. Intel and Micron had developed other non-volatile phase-change memory (PCM) technologies previously; Mark Durcan of Micron said 3D XPoint architecture differs from previous offerings of PCM, and uses chalcogenide materials for both selector and storage parts of memory cell that are faster and more stable than traditional PCM materials like GST. But now, they have a product that uses this Innovative Technology to boost up current generation Kaby Lake systems. Its the Intel Optane Memory Modules that comes with 16GB/32GB...
