I have an Intel Optane accelerating my secondary hard disk, it has only data as videos and music ( my windows 10 is in the principal SSD disk) the problem I have is, it deactivate itself every 4 days or so, so I have to activate again, there is a message telling me I have to erase the data to activate optane again, so it losses all the data already saved. I have tried it on my principal SSD disk with no issues. What could be the problem?

Did you leave 5MB - 15MB of unalloctaed space in the end of your HDD (the HDD boeing accelerated). If not please do it. Optane need this space. You may create this space, by shrinking the last allocated partition end, using Disk Manager.

Yes I did, I have 20MB of unallocated space, but still have the problem. I just noted that my HDD is NTFS formatted, could it be the problem?
