Question: is optane faster than nvme?
Answer: NVMe is faster than SATA 3, Optane uses NVMe. A such it is not faster than NVM. However Optane does have the lowest latency (at this time) compared to other NVMe drives on the market. At the time of my answer you could say that due to the low latency Optane is the fastest SSD using NVMe controller.
