Re: If Optane is so good for speeding up hard drives
That mostly matters for sequential throughput, and if you want to write faster than the 600 GB/sec that SATA is capable of you shouldn't be trying to accelerate a hard drive, you should be using an SSD (or striping multiple SSDs if you really want to go fast)
Yeah, the latency also improves not going through SATA, but again if you need latency measured in microseconds, using a fast cache on a hard drive is very much the wrong approach no matter how fast that cache is.
