Hi Guys, Can someone please give me to a good link(s) or point me to a good web page(s) on Optane, there are a lot out there but not all very clear. I would like to understand the following : 1- What are the main benefits / pitfalls of running Optane ? 2- How do I check is a drive is Optane compatible. Here is what I have : [IMAGE] 3- How do I enable/install Optane ? 4- Can I enable Optane on specific drives only ? 5- What are the potential mistakes / disasters when enabling / installing Optane ? Please note I uninstalled my Dell OEM WD256gb M.2 drive to install the Samsung listed above but I don't "think/remember" I ever disabled Optane prior to swapping as some web pages suggest. All drives are currently working fine. Thanks for your help.
