Hi HNguy101,
Thank you for posting in the Intel® Optane™ community.
The Intel® Optane™ Memory is designed to accelerate a SATA drive in your computer. The module is not intended to store data like an SSD.
If you currently have one Intel® Optane™ Memory paired with your HDD, our recommendation is to keep using it that way, and wait until you get a new NVMe SSD to start using the SSD to store data in the way you are explaining.
We hope this clarifies your concern.
Have a nice day.

- Why to use Optane memory as portable HDD? How big is your Optane Memory module? 16GB, 32GB? It was designed to serve as cache memory, rather that for storage purpose.
- Better buy external HDD or even USB flash.

You may do what you want, however it is strange and not optimal solution.
