M.2 has attracted a lot of hardware but with a measly 2 PCI Express lanes its not that fast
Corsair Obsidian 750D Airflow Edition with the Corsair AX1600iWindows 11 on my ThinkVision 31.5 inch P32p-20 Monitor looks good.

The one thing I am wondering is will the system see it as Optane storage and save data to it as such.
I personally haven’t been that big of a fan of Optane since it seems odd to only offer it on systems with an i5 or i7. I just never saw someone buying an i7 and planning on using a HDD as the main system storage. Also the 32GB max at launch was not nearly enough.

intel does some funny naming things, now optane can mean a caching drive or a pcie ssd main drive. with them now letting optane caching work with storage drives instead of just boot drives it makes more sense, if you are on 300 series chipset that is.

It does now actually, quadlatte. It used to only support the boot drive. Xavier, I've installed into high performance desktops using M.2 boot drives (RST with Optane) also and it has made a significant difference with high performance M.2 SSD's installed.

I didn't say it won't help boost speeds.... i said beware of issues with optane read what charlie says endurance for one Random write failures. This isn’t to say the cell is bad, if you retry it, things almost always work fine mixing and matching ram - unknown - issues

I know what you said. My point was, I haven't ran into any issues with Optane this far.
