Anandtech has posted an excellent review of this new SSD comparing it to Fuzedrive.
 
So what's the difference between a SSD and optane memory?
 
No one should be spending their hard-earned money on a QLC SSD, no matter how fast and reliable the tiny Optane cache is.
 
Didn't Intel already have something almost identical to this?

No one should be spending their hard-earned money on a QLC SSD, no matter how fast and reliable the tiny Optane cache is.
Unless the QLC drive is quite a bit cheaper than an alternative.
