Does that suggest Optane is working?


Yes.Â* A SATA interface can only do about 550MB/s so to get higher than

suggests caching is in operation.


Eh? isn't the optane part accessed over SATA, so ought to be subject to

No, I dont think it actually is...

Its just non volatile memory used to cache disks whether it fits in a
