I think the product was good. But it was too little too late, since nand SSD pricing had already begun to drop. If it had a higher capacity, or lower pricing, or was released sooner it would have been a hit.
the one i still have just an ssd boot for a dietpi (debian mini server), separated from its hdd which is just file storage. as a regular ssd, the modules are ‘ok’. a bit slow–and of course very small, but higher endurance. i should never have to worry about it running out of writes in that little mini-server.
optane was a horrible and ineffective ‘solution’ to windows and application bloat.

I still use one for an os drive in my nas.
