Hi,

I have had problems with the installation of Optane Memory software. I already realized the reason. Because I want to install the Optane Memory on a disk other than the main disk (the disk where OS is installed).

When do they update and allow the Optane Memory to accelerate disk drives other than the main disk with OS?

Thanks Al, for your advice, it helped me to install it on my PC

Thanks everyone for your help.
