Page 85 highlights

B-2: Installation in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode If the SATA controller has been configured in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode, please follow the steps below: Step 1: After system restarts, go to the BIOS Setup, make sure CSM Support under the Boot menu is disabled. Step 2: Go to Settings\IO Ports\SATA And RST Configuration and make sure USE RST Legacy OROM is disabled and RST Control PCIe Storage Devices is set to Manual. If you want to enable the Optane™ memory installed in the M2P_SB connector, set PCIe Storage Dev On Port 21 to RST Controlled; to enable the Optane™ memory installed in the M2A_CPU connector, set PCIe Storage Dev On Port 9 to RST Controlled; to enable the Optane™ memory installed in the M2M_SB connector, set PCIe Storage Dev On Port 17 to RST Controlled. Step 3: Enter the operating system, launch the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology utility from the Start menu, and then enable Intel® Optane™ Memory on the Intel® Optane™ Memory tab. Step 4: If you install more than one Optane™ memory, please select which one you are going to use. Then select which drive to be accelerated. Click Yes to continue. Follow the on-screen instructions to proceed. When completed, restart the system. Step 5: Launch the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology utility from the Start menu and make sure the Intel® Optane™ Memory has been enabled. If you want to accelerate the system drive, you can select specific folders, files, or applications to accelerate using the Intel® Optane™ Memory Pinning function. (The Optane™ memory used must have at least 32 GB capacity.) •• 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® Rapid Storage Technology or Intel(R) Optane Memory application first. •• After enabling the Optane™ memory, the related BIOS settings will remain even after a BIOS update. - 85 - Configuring a RAID Set

Configuring a RAID Set
B-2: Installation in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode
If the SATA controller has been configured 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
®
Rapid Storage
Technology or Intel(R) Optane Memory application first.
After enabling the Optane
memory, the related BIOS settings will remain even after a BIOS update.
Step 2:
Go to
Settings\IO Ports\SATA And RST Configuration
and make sure
USE RST Legacy OROM
is disabled and
RST Control PCIe Storage Devices
is set to
Manual
. If
you want to enable the Optane
memory installed in the
M2P_SB connector, set
PCIe Storage Dev On Port 21
to
RST Controlled
; to enable the Optane
memory installed in
the M2A_CPU connector, set
PCIe Storage Dev On Port 9
to
RST Controlled
; to enable the Optane
memory installed
in the M2M_SB connector, set
PCIe Storage Dev On Port
17
to
RST Controlled
.
Step 3:
Enter the operating system, launch the I
ntel
®
Rapid Storage
Technology
utility from the Start menu, and then enable
Intel
®
Optane
Memory on the
Intel
®
Optane
Memory
tab.
Step 4:
If you install more than one Optane
memory, please select
which one you are going to use. Then select which drive to
be accelerated. Click
Yes
to continue. Follow the on-screen
instructions to proceed. When completed, restart the system.
Step 5:
Launch the
Intel
®
Rapid Storage Technology
utility from the Start menu
and make sure the Intel
®
Optane
Memory has been enabled. If you want to
accelerate the system drive, you can select specific folders, files, or applications
to accelerate using the
Intel
®
Optane
Memory Pinning
function. (The
Optane
memory used must have at least 32 GB capacity.)
Step 1:
After system restarts, go to the BIOS Setup, make sure
CSM
Support
under the
Boot
menu is disabled.
