I am getting an error trying to get the optane memory that came with my motherboard.

Z370 AORUS GAMING 7-OP

I get an error saying my bios config is not supported.

I am in achi mode and have tried drivers etc.

And i have tried different bios settings but my samsung ssd would show if i manualy put the bios into Intel RST premium with Intel optane system acceleration.

After contacting gigabyte i found that i was having issues with the way the board was setup.

My graphics card in pcie slot 1 made the sata3 slot 1 not work.

And having the optane memory in the top m2 slot meant that sata3 slots 4 and 5 did not work.

So i moved the optane memory to the middle m2 slot unfortunately under my graphics card (the only place i could have everything work properly.)

This only uses the sata3 port 0.

I then moved my hard drives etc to sata ports 2 3 4 and 5.

Installed the optane memory and changed my hard drive from mbr to gpt and everything now works

I really hope this helps anyone else having the same issues.
