So here is what happened. I bought a 2TB NVMe for my laptop. I unplugged the previous NVMe from the laptop and wanted to clone data, but I needed two M.2 slots (I didn’t buy an M.2 external adapter), so I Looking at my desktop computer, there are exactly two M.2 slots on the motherboard, one of which is plugged into an Optane and connected to a 6TB HDD. I didn't think much about it at the time, I just wanted to finish the work quickly, and I could take my laptop to the college the next day. After the transfer was completed, I plugged my Optane back into the previous M.2 and didn't turn it on. After I got home, I turned it on and found that my 6TB hard drive was missing (but it can be seen in Bios). And Bios is not in AHCI mode, but in Intel RST mode. "Your System is not Intel Optane Memory Ready", No compatible disks for intel optane memory is displayed in the Intel Optane Memory software. I consulted the help manual of Intel Optane, and the solution given by Intel is just a simple sentence "We recommend to using third-party software to recover data on the associated disk.", and 6TB of data is not that easy to recovery, I will need the data in the near future (because my college project is in it). You guys have any ideas? P.S. Operating System is not installed on that 6TB HDD.

So I'm in the process of configuring a laptop and I was wondering whether a 500 GB "regular" SSD and 32 GB of Optane memory is better over just a 512 GB NVMe M.2 SSD? If it's worth mentioning, I play games like City: Skylines fairly frequently with long initial load times. Thanks

Okay so i Have a ASUS Prime Z390-P Motherboard with a 9900k(if that matters). My primary m.2 is a samsung 970. and i bought the 16gb intel optane upgrade for my secondary m.2 slot. My issue is Optane cannot be activated with CSM "on" which for some reason my primary drive isn't bootable without CSM "on", detected but not in bootable list of devices. So how can i get my primary m.2 to boot without CSM enabled so i can enable my optane drive? I will provide any additional info needed please help.

I already have a 250gb SSD for operating system and 16gb x 2 ram, and Two HDD of 3 TB for gaming and storage, The SSD couldnt hold much games due to low capacity, i have two m.2 slots on ASUS B250F board. one is occupied with 860 evo and im planning to add an m.2 intel optane 32gb on the other one, cause i mostly depend on HDD for gaming,will the optane memory really reduces the game loading times and other frequent works or is it totally waste?

So I got a 16gb m.2 optane drive, put it in my omen HP laptop, downloaded the Intel® Optane™ Memory User Interface, and rebooted. Now I can't boot back and gives me this error screen. What do I do now? Plz help thx

I recently purchased a new laptop, it has the regular 5400rpm wd sata HDD and one empty m.2 slot. I want to increase the performance of HDD. I found two solutions 16GB Intel Optane Cache Memory (m.2) and 128GB m.2 SSD. Both are almost same in price. I found many helpful content about SSDs but there is not a single post/blog/video on internet about installing Optane memory in a notebook, all of theme are about installation in desktop pc. I also found that my laptop's (lenovo IP330s i5-8250u) BIOS and mother board are compatible with Optane memory because I am able to successfully install the Optane setup and change the sata connector's mode to the compatible one. Which one is better in performance prospective (**not storage prospective**)?

Hi! After a long while I've decided its time to upgrade from my Old i3-2100 and GTX 750Ti to something better. The options in the market which I can afford is the Ryzen 5 1600 and the Intel i5 8500 + Intel Optane Memory and a GTX 1060 3GB with a B350 or B360 Motherboard respectively. I'm from Bangladesh and here the prices are quite steep and my build Budget is around 77,000 BDT which is US $911 at current exchange rate Only planning to use SSD for boot drive. For the rest of stuff I'll be using HDD. Prices for the CPU Ryzen 5 1600 - 15,000 BDT which is equivalent to US $177.42 Or, Intel i5 8500 - 17,200 BDT which is equivalent to US $203.44 Intel Optane M.2 16GB - 4000 BDT which is equivalent to US $47.31 Also, the GTX 1060 3GB is priced at 24,000 BDT which is equivalent to US $284 I'll be using the PC for Gaming, Editing in Premiere and Photoshop, a bit of Music Production and lastly watching Linus's Beautiful Face I want the PC to be a bit future proof as in an upgrade path so than i can Upgrade later on if i need to. Do you guys think that Optane Memory is a good deal to make an Intel Build? After seeing the results of the performance enhancement using optane my mind is bamboozled and I'm again confused about the two options. But, seems like Ryzen will allow me to Upgrade till 2020 with the same Chipset with Bios Updates. Both Options are pretty tempting. Can Ya'll tell me something which can finalise my decision!. Sorry for troubling as I've been waiting a while to build a new system and I don't want to regret if you know what I mean. Games I'll be playing - Watch dogs 2, Assasins Creed Series, GTA V, Far Cry 5, PUBG, Fortnite, Battlefield series, Forza, Dirt 4, Minesweeper (JK) etc. It will be a huge relief for me if you guys help me so that I can purchase the system soon. Thanks In Advance. PC Master Race FTW P.S- Love from Bangladesh to the PC Community :3

One of the items that Intel is keen to promote with this launch is an update to its Intel RST algorithm when dealing with ‘Optane Memory’, Intel’s brand for Optane whereby a small amount of storage is placed in front of a larger drive to act as a fast cache. Up to this point, Intel platforms that supported Optane Memory in this configuration could only do so on the drive that was used to boot into the operating system. While this worked well for low-cost users that relied on a single rotational hard-disk drive of rust for their needs, with most enthusiasts using a fast SSD (SATA or PCIe) as their first drive that loads the OS, putting Optane Memory in front of this as a cache was relatively pointless – any gains would be intangible at best. With the new generation of products, Intel has expanded the capabilities of Optane Memory such that it can act as a cache for a non-OS drive. This means that a user can have a fast SSD boot drive, a large spinning drive for storage, and then place Optane in front of that storage drive to potentially get much better performance from the drive. The main idea here is that the large rotational drive is where users store games and large files used in content creation, which often have a long loading time. With the right caching algorithm, and a decent sized Optane Memory drive, Intel likes to promote that loading games and loading media for creative purposes are several factors faster than an equivalent system without an Optane Memory drive. Part of the news around Optane is that Intel is now creating new processor branding for OEMs that have configurations with Optane. The new brands and logos are similar to the standard Core i5/i7 style that we are used to, however the logos are now a dark blue with white text, and exhibit a plus after the Core i5/i7 name. So just to be clear, this is not a new line of processors. We will not have to suddenly deal with a Core i9+-8950HK being different to the non-plus counterpart. This is purely a branding exercise. However, to complicate things, this means that specification sheets can (and will) list the processors as Core i3+ and Core i7+ and even vPro models. This makes looking for particular processor versions in search engines a lot more difficult for almost no obvious benefit. I mean sure, Intel wants to promote the use of its Optane drives, but we already have the Optane branding and the Optane logos to do that for us. This ends up being another logo put onto the box. Ultimately, Intel is still marketing Optane, its high-cost R&D product, with low capacities at low cost systems with relatively little margin. While it might seem like a noble goal, to bring extra caching performance down to the lower cost segment, it could very easily be done with SATA or PCIe M.2 drives using regular NAND flash. A lot of users would like to see high-capacity, high-endurance Optane drives moving more into the mainstream, instead of more attempts at funneling in a product like Optane into caching. source :- https://www.anandtech.com/show/12607/intel-expands-8th-gen-core-core-i9-on-mobile-iris-plus-desktop-chipsets-and-vpro/5

original → China Bilibili:https://www.bilibili.com/video/av77252786/ intel Optane intel Optane DataCenter Persistent Memory Module,DCPMM Is a RAM or SSD? It maybe a SSD.Just on the DIMM socket. You can use it with just on CascadeLake CPU.(2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor - LGA3647) intel say it can help enterprise to save lots of money. But I also think it is many expensive. (Just expensive in China,256GB 30000CNY,Maybe in other countries it is so cheap) I have one Engineering Sample(ES) and one Pass Sample(QS) DCPMM 【Blue PCB is Engineering Sample(ES) / Green PCB is Pass Sample(QS)】 A: B: Pass Sample(QS)relative to Engineering Sample(ES)is doing more modify. Flash particles,Location of parts,capacitance and powered by. In China this is them's price: Engineering Sample(ES) 1250CNY = 178USD Pass Sample(QS) 2200CNY = 315USD Formal edition 4699CNY = 671USD Most people will to chooes QS. Because,it is so cheap and same of Formal edition. (If like cpu we need look stepping to chooes,low stepping maybe also have some bug) Engineering Sample's need two same ES DCPMM can use it,one is not,ES is not have AD(AppDirect) module. Pass Sample(QS) is same of Formal edition'DCPMM just have one, you also can use it. If you are windows system, you need to use ipmctl. If you want to use MM(Memory Mode) module, you need DDR4 Ram to mix use with DCPMM. Best degree of mixing is 1/4. Like 32GB DDR4 with 128GB DCPMM. Two 256GB DCPMM use on AD and use RAID0, it will have so~fast reading speed with 101GB/s. This is DCPMM's flash particles,but I don't know what meaning about it. QS is 29P16B1DLDNF2-183417-QX7E1 ES is 29P16B1BLDNF2-171012-NFDD intel callout year on DCPMM’s PCB QS is 2017 © intel Corporation ES is 2016 © intel Corporation But DCPMM is release on 2019 ,the same time with 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor.
