optane for laptop?

[Balaji]

hiii,

     i have lenovo legion y520 and inspiron 7567, and friends have acer vx 15 and few more mid  range gaming laptops 

they do ahvw mvme 2280 interace can i swap out my ssd for an optane stick with hard disk for a perofrmance better than  a hard disk only model?
tahnk you in aadvance

I guess you could but while optane  greatly increases hdd performance it doesn't offer much performance bump used with a sata ssd so I cant imagine it being much better than an nvme

[Balaji]

now i want  to speed up things with the hard drive only should i buy one module or not?

do the laptops have kaby lake and only spinning disks (hdd)?  If so optane may help

Wait until the manufacturers say something.  That or let someone like linus take the plunge for you - I'd do a google news daily update with the keywords "Optane" and "laptop"

What chipset do they use? It needs to specifically support it.

Might even be worse considering software overhead.

that means  nvme interface with kaby lake processors is not succifient for optane memory to work with my laptop
