M.2 Intel Optane Memory Module 16 GB
Overview
This document describes the specications and capabilities of the Intel® OptaneTM memory module. The Intel® OptaneTM memory is a
system acceleration solution developed for 7th Generation Intel® CoreTM processor-based platforms. The Intel® OptaneTM memory
module is architected with the high performance controller interface Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe*)- delivering outstanding
performance, low latency and quality of service. NVMe uses a standardized interface that enables higher performance and lower latency
than pervious interfaces. Intel® OptaneTM memory module oers capacities of 16 GB and 32 GB in small M.2 form factors.
The Intel® OptaneTMmemory module oers a system acceleration solution using the latest Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST)
15.5X.
The Intel® OptaneTM memory module includes these key features:
•PCIe 3.0x2 with NVMe interface
•Uses Intel’s revolutionary new storage technology, 3D XpointTM memory media
•Ultra-low latency; exceptional responsiveness
•Performance saturation at queue depth of 4 and lower
•Very high endurance capabilities

DDR4
DDR4 (double data rate fourth generation) memory is a higher-speed successor to the DDR2 and DDR3 technologies and allows up to 512
GB in capacity, compared to the DDR3's maximum capacity of 128 GB per DIMM. DDR4 synchronous dynamic random-access memory is
keyed dierently from both SDRAM and DDR to prevent the user from installing the wrong type of memory into the system.
DDR4 needs 20 percent less or just 1.2 volts, compared to DDR3 which requires 1.5 volts of electrical power to operate. DDR4 also supports
a new, deep power-down mode that allows the host device to go into standby without needing to refresh its memory. Deep power-down
mode is expected to reduce standby power consumption by 40 to 50 percent.

DDR4 Details
There are subtle dierences between DDR3 and DDR4 memory modules, as listed below.
Key notch dierence
The key notch on a DDR4 module is in a dierent location from the key notch on a DDR3 module. Both notches are on the insertion edge,
but the notch location on the DDR4 is slightly dierent, to prevent the module from being installed into an incompatible board or platform.
Figure 4. Notch dierence
Increased thickness
DDR4 modules are slightly thicker than DDR3, to accommodate more signal layers.

Boot Sequence
Boot Sequence allows you to bypass the System Setup–dened boot device order and boot directly to a specic device (for example:
optical drive or hard drive). During the Power-on Self Test (POST), when the Dell logo appears, you can:
•Access System Setup by pressing F2 key
•Bring up the one-time boot menu by pressing F12 key
The one-time boot menu displays the devices that you can boot from including the diagnostic option. The boot menu options are:
•Removable Drive (if available)
•STXXXX Drive
NOTE
: XXX denotes the SATA drive number.
•Optical Drive (if available)
•SATA Hard Drive (if available)
•Diagnostics
: Choosing Diagnostics, will display the ePSA diagnostics screen.

Troubleshooting your computer
You can troubleshoot your computer using indicators like diagnostic lights, beep codes, and error messages during the operation of the
computer.
Enhanced Pre-Boot System Assessment — ePSA
diagnostics
The ePSA diagnostics (also known as system diagnostics) performs a complete check of your hardware. The ePSA is embedded with the
BIOS and is launched by the BIOS internally. The embedded system diagnostics provides a set of options for particular devices or device
groups allowing you to:
•Run tests automatically or in an interactive mode
•Repeat tests
•Display or save test results
•Run thorough tests to introduce additional test options to provide extra information about the failed device(s)
•View status messages that inform you if tests are completed successfully
•View error messages that inform you of problems encountered during testing
CAUTION
results or error messages.
NOTE: Some tests for specic devices require user interaction. Always ensure that you are present at the computer terminal
when the diagnostic tests are performed.
: Use the system diagnostics to test only your computer. Using this program with other computers may cause invalid

1 Power-on the computer.
2 As the computer boots, press the F12 key as the Dell logo appears.
3 On the boot menu screen, select the Diagnostics option.
4 Click the arrow key at the bottom left corner.
Diagnostics front page is displayed.
5 Press the arrow in the lower-right corner to go to the page listing.
The items detected are listed.
6 To run a diagnostic test on a specic device, press Esc and click Yes to stop the diagnostic test.

Note the error code and validation number and contact Dell.
LCD built in self test - BIST
All-in-One (AIO) systems supports LCD BIST similar to any other Dell systems that have BIST test implemented. It allows the user to isolate
the LCD during troubleshooting to determine which sub-system is at fault. The main dierence is the lack of an integrated keyboard scan
controller in the AIO. When BIST is initiated, an internal generated pattern from the LCD will be emitted for user's observation. This pattern
will go by sequence through this pattern. Black-White-Red-Green-Blue or a White-Black-Red-Green-Blue where each pattern is emitted for
2 to 3 seconds. The following images displays the pattern of the colors on the LCD.

Invoking BIST with user modes
There are two methods to invoke the LCD BIST .
•OSD Toggle
•ePSA
OSD toggle
The rst method of user initiation is via OSD toggle button. The user should press the OSD toggle button and hold it in while the power
button is applied to turn the AIO on. This is the hardware-initiated method that does not require the CPU and BIOS to be functional. The
panel will stay in BIST mode until the BIOS reboots the system. The test duration is approximately 20 seconds which allows 2 cycles of
color bar patterns.
To invoke the BIST test via OSD Toggle:
1Press and hold down the OSD toggle button.
2Press the power button to turn on the computer while holding down on the OSD toggle button.
: The OSD toggle is located at the right side of the chassis, just above the Hard Disk indicator light.
NOTE
ePSA
The second method to troubleshoot is via ePSA entry. The user initiates a Pre-Boot POST via F12 function key and the system enters
ePSA. The ePSA menu will have an LCD BIST selection that asserts the proper signals via BIOS commands. The BIST mode will loop for

time period, the BIOS will return the system to the ePSA menu.
