Intel Optane Memory M10 64GB Module

This Intel Optane Memory M10 module provides 64GB of 3D XPoint memory in an M.2 2280 form factor. It connects through a PCIe 3.0 x2 interface using the NVMe 1.2 protocol. The drive is designed as a system accelerator and cache device rather than a primary storage volume.

System Acceleration for Compatible Platforms

It suits builders adding responsive caching to a compatible motherboard and processor combination that supports Intel Optane technology. Systems without the required platform support or those needing a large-capacity boot drive should consider a standard NVMe SSD instead.

PCIe 3.0 x2 NVMe 1.2 Interface

The single specification that decides compatibility is the PCIe 3.0 x2 NVMe 1.2 interface paired with an M.2 2280 M-key or B+M-key slot. Verify that the motherboard and CPU officially support Intel Optane memory before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this Optane M10 module work as a standalone boot drive for my operating system?

It is designed as a system acceleration and cache device rather than a primary boot drive; it pairs with a larger storage drive to speed up frequently used files and applications.

What motherboard slot and interface does the MEMPEK1J064GA01 require?

It needs an M.2 2280 slot with an M-Key or B+M key that supports PCIe 3.0 x2 and NVMe 1.2 signalling.

What real-world speeds can I expect from the 64 GB Optane M10?

Up to 1450 MB/s sequential read, 640 MB/s sequential write, 255000 IOPS random 4 KB read and 145000 IOPS random 4 KB write.
