As I mentioned, the technology is 3D Xpoint and the Intel 3d D XPoint branding is "Optane".
3D XPoint technology has been around for years. Intel just decided to try and sell a QLC SSD, which are not that desirable,, as an Optane product by putting a small 3D Xpoint cache in it. Most SSD have a small faster cache, and with most QLC drives, it is a TLC cache (but they don't call it a TLC drive unless they are trying to dupe consumers, they usually don't specify what type of NAND).
BTW, 3D XPoint (Intel Optane brand) was developed jointly by Intel and Micron Memory. Micron manufactures the chips at their FAB. Micron has decided to leave the 3D XPoint businness, so it is unclear what is the future of Optane/3D Xpoint. It is probably dead. is my guess
