"Your system is not intel optane memory ready: No compatible disks for intel optane memory"

I just made a new build with a 16 gb intel optane memory, but when I initiate the optane setup the above message shows up and won't let me activate it. The memory is pretty much installed correctly (it even appears on the BIOS settings) I have my OS and my Bios updated and my hard drive should be compatible, but I can't enable the system acceleration . This is my setup:

Intel Core I3 8100

Motherboard Asus TUF B360-Plus gaming

Windows 10 64 bits

2 Tb Sata Western Digital Hard drive, with gpt partition table just as the requirements page specify.

I've been with this issue all day and can't find any solution, please help.

I couldn't attach more than 5 files, so I'll put the rest in another response.

Hi bluemarz,

 

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

 

We recommend you to check you have the following BIOS settings:

 

 

1- go to Boot\CMS (Compatibility Support Module) and make sure is disabled.

 

 

2-Go to advanced\PCH Storage Configuration and check the following information:

 

 

A- SATA Mode Selection: Intel RST Premium with Intel(R) Optane(TM) System Acceleration(RAID).

 

 

Also, we recommend you to use a different SATA Port and a different M.2 port.

 

 

If the situation remains, then please let us know the specific ports you are using to connect the drive and the Optane(TM)

 

 

We look forward to hearing back from you.

 

 

Regards,

 

Junior M.

Hello again.

Turns out the cause of the problem was that my hard drive wasn't connected to the SATA port number 1, after I changed it and made a quick reinstallation everything went all right.

Thank you very much for your response and assistance.

Good day.

I seem to be having the same problem with my Intel Optane Memory so I have done what you have suggested to Bluemarz. I have attacked all my Logs and System Information in a ZIP file.

It would mean the world to me if this issue was fixed.

 

Looking forward to hearing from you

 

Regards
