"We are extremely pleased to announce the availability of this new product," said Richard Wright, Vice President of Akitio. "We believe that Intel chose to partner with Akitio on this project due to the fact that Akitio is a serious developer and innovator of Thunderbolt products. While many other companies currently selling Thunderbolt products merely slap their logo onto products developed by other companies, Akitio has been and continues to be a leading developer and trendsetter in the Thunderbolt ecosystem. All Akitio products are developed in-house and often in conjunction with Intel and other partners. Akitio has become well known as a company that has the knowledge and flexibility to develop new products much quicker than the competition. Akitio focuses on new and cutting edge products such as Thunderbolt 3 and the Intel Optane technology and we are indeed pleased to have been chosen to partner with Intel to bring this plug and play product to market."
The Node Lite with Optane is currently bundled with a 960GB Intel® Optane™ SSD 905P. Akitio also intends to release other versions of the red Node Lite with larger capacity Optane drives as those drives become available from Intel.
