It seems to be mostly marketing hype to me.
I finally took some time to (briefly) read up on it and it looks like it is Intel's brand of triple level memory, something Samsung has been doing with their EVO series for a while now.
They are adding a 16 or 32GB Optane memory chip to an SSD and this cache is supposed to accelerate performance.
If there can be a performance boost maybe it is accomplished with the Optane Driver. I know nothing about that driver or what it does.
It all sounds fishy to me.
Has anyone seen a spinning HDD with Octane cache? I didn't see any in my 5 minute search.
