Intel Optane 900P 280 GB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD

The Intel Optane 900P is a 280 GB internal solid-state drive that connects through a PCI Express 3.0 x4 interface. It delivers sequential reads up to 2500 MB/s and writes up to 2000 MB/s while drawing 14 W during operation. The drive includes 256-bit encryption and weighs approximately 8.11 oz.

Professionals who need low-latency storage

This drive suits professionals who need low-latency storage for heavy workloads such as database transactions or content-creation scratch disks. Buyers who want more capacity than 280 GB or who require a different physical interface should look at other products.

PCI Express 3.0 x4 interface

The single specification that decides fit is the PCI Express 3.0 x4 interface; the motherboard must provide a compatible slot and BIOS support for booting from this drive. Without that slot the drive cannot be installed or used.

Questions about this item

Is the 280 GB Optane 900P the right capacity for a fast boot and application drive?

At 280 GB it holds the operating system and a handful of frequently used programs with room left for active project files, making it a practical single-drive choice for a responsive workstation.

Will the 2500 MB/s read and 2000 MB/s write speeds be reached in everyday use?

Those are peak sequential rates; real-world workloads with mixed file sizes and queue depths will run lower, but the drive’s low latency still keeps applications snappy.

What does the PCI Express 3.0 x4 interface mean for throughput limits?

The x4 lane configuration on the 3.0 specification caps theoretical bandwidth near 4 GB/s, so the drive’s 2500 MB/s read and 2000 MB/s write fit well within that ceiling.
