The Fastest SSD from Intel®

Thanks for the opportunity to test out the Intel Optane — I’d heard a lot about it, but never thought I’d be able to actually get my hands on it.

Alexander Nosar

Thanks for the opportunity to get a firsthand look at the hardware. The console tests showed positive results: 2-3 times better than the SSDs already on the system.

The reading test that took a virtual machine around twelve hours—practically blocked the host’s disk—took the Intel Optane about ten minutes. It was interesting to look around inside the server; this hardware is completely new to me. The configuration was perfect for a distributed search of gravitational waves. Memory is critical for the project; if there’s not enough or it’s too slow, unit calculations will drag: what should take 12 hours could take several days. But everything ran on your equipment without any hesitation.

The task we looked at with this server deals with machine learning: segmenting users by text markers. We plan to continue testing when Optane becomes a paid service.

Aleksandr Maslov

We optimize algorithms in the field of computational electrodynamics and work with enormous matrices, which have to be saved on harddisks. For certain blocks, the Intel Optane proved to work twice as fast. We evaluated read and write speeds for different writable block volumes and compared them to the speeds of the other SSDs on the system.
