Intel® Optane™ Notes

Intel® Optane™ is a combination of a compatible memory device and Intel Rapid Technology software. This
combination is designed to speed up your system performance. However note the following;

• The 

SATA Mode

 should be set 

BEFORE installing an operating system

, and after you have backed up all 

necessary files and data (see sidebar). See 

“Setting Up SATA Mode (Optane™ or AHCI)” on page 6 - 2

 for 

details. Make sure you install the 

Intel Rapid Storage Technology application 

if you have set the SATA 

Mode to 

Intel RST Premium, 

or to

 AHCI 

(see 

“IRST Driver Installation” on page 6 - 27

).

• It is very important to make sure that when you create a hard disk drive partition when installing Windows 

for an 

Intel® Optane™ 

system, that you leave at least a minimum of 5MB of unallocated space (note this is 

5MB only, not GB).

•

After setting the SATA mode to Intel® Optane™

 and installing the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology 

application, 

DO NOT uninstall the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology application

.

• If you are reinstalling a system that has previously been setup in 

Intel RST Premium mode, make sure 

you have cleared the Intel Optane Memory 

(

see 

“Clearing Intel® Optane™” on page 6 - 7

). If you 

haven’t cleared the Optane setup you may not find a suitable hard disk drive partition on which to reinstall 
an operating system.

• If you need to reinstall an operating system, uninstall the IRST driver/application or swap the hard disk 

drive (or Intel® Optane™ SSD) 

make sure you have cleared the Intel Optane Memory 

(

see 

“Clearing 

Intel® Optane™” on page 6 - 7

).
