Explains and gives steps to resolve issue when Intel Optane Memory H Series with SSD isn’t detected in Intel Optane Memory and Storage Management app.
Windows* Device Manager and Disk Management detect the module, but Intel® Optane™ memory-capable applications do not.
Example: No Compatible Optane Device Found error message
System BIOS is not configured properly for acceleration and the Intel® RST controller to detect. This results in Windows managing the device as two separate PCIe* storage devices (Note: Use of the device in this state is unsupported.)
Refer to your system manufacturer for more details or specific guidance before proceeding to follow the steps below.
Caution |
If the settings in 2a or 2b below are not right, do not change them, as this can result in the system no longer booting to the OS. The operating system will need to be installed with the proper settings. See the Installation Guide for more information. |
