B-2: Installation in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode
If the SATA controller has been congured in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode,
please follow the steps below:
An Optane
memory cannot be used to accelerate an M.2 PCIe SSD.
If more than one Optane
memory is installed, you can select only one of them to accelerate your SATA-
based boot drive. The other(s) can only be used as data drive(s).
Do not abruptly remove the Optane
memory. Doing so will cause the operating system to stop functioning
correctly.
If you want to change/remove the Optane
memory, you must disable it using the Intel
®

Controlled; to enable the Optane
memory installed in
the M2A connector, set PCIe Storage Dev on Port 9 to
RST Controlled; to enable the Optane
memory installed
