Intel Optane Memory Supported Intel Optane memory is a revolutionary new class of non-volatile memory that sits in between system memory and storage to accelerate system performance and responsiveness. When combined with the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver it seamlessly manages multiple tiers of storage while presenting one virtual drive to the OS ensuring that data frequently used resides on the fastest tier of storage. Intel Optane memory requires specific hardware and software configuration.

Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.TPMTrusted Platform Module (TPM) is a component on the desktop board that is specifically designed to enhance platform security above-and-beyond the capabilities of today's software by providing a protected space for key operations and other security critical tasks. Using both hardware and software the TPM protects encryption and signature keys at their most vulnerable stages - operations when the keys are being used unencrypted in plain-text form.TPM VersionTPM (Trusted Platform Module) is a component that provides hardware level security upon system boot-up via stored security keys passwords encryption and hash functions.Intel Rapid Storage TechnologyIntel Rapid Storage Technology provides protection performance and expandability for desktop and mobile platforms. Whether using one or multiple hard drives users can take advantage of enhanced performance and lower power consumption. When using more than one drive the user can have additional protection against data loss in the event of hard drive failure. Successor to Intel Matrix Storage Technology.Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple virtual platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.Intel Platform Trust Technology (Intel PTT)Intel Platform Trust Technology (Intel PTT) is a platform functionality for credential storage and key management used by Windows 8* and Windows 10. Intel PTT supports BitLocker* for hard drive encryption and supports all Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted Platform Module (fTPM) 2.0.
