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 In-

essary data on your hard disk(s) as you will need wipe the disks clean in order to pre-
