Intel has a web page with information about their new enterprise Optane ssd. Unfortunately there aren't very many details. Here is the link to the Intel page:

PCWorld magazine reported the new Intel Optane 375GB SSD costs $1,520 and is available now. Larger capacities will be available later this year.
 
Thanks.

The articles are all pretty much the same images and information provided by Intel.

What surprised me was the endurance estimate - 12.3 Petabytes total writes.

At one of the conferences an Intel VP mentioned that the consumer version will not be available until next year.
