Intel's 905P Optane reaches a tempting 1.5TB, but drive prices remain high
(PCWorld)

Intel just introduced its largest Optane-based SSDs yet, but the shocker may be that one comes in the rarely seen U.2 interface.Intel on Thursday announced its Optane 905P drives with three flavors: A 905P in PCIe add-in card, or if you´re into the nomenclature thing: HHHL (half height, half length) trim. It´ll come in capacities of 960GB and 1.5TB. A 905P M.2 `gumstick` drive in capacities of up to 380GB. A 905P in U.2 in capacities of 1.5TB, 960GB, and 480GB.  The last drive is probably a surprise to those who don´t read Obscure SSD Quarterly, (Editor`s note: not a real media outlet) because it´s only the third U.2 drive to be introduced. Ever. The previous two-the 900P and the 750-were also made by Intel, so it´s a very rare form factor.To read this article in full, please click here
