welp im only a little confused. I for whatever reason was completely unable to use optane to boost my sata SSD (my system drive) even though the optane faq says you can do this. However when i tried to boost my spare drive (2tb SSHD [seagate firecuda]) it works fine. However either way before and after boosting the drive the rapid storage technology app keeps telling me about this wite-cashe buffer flushing policy. i am not sure what to do about it. i dont have a UPS connected to my pc. Although i think ill be getting one soon anyways. I have attached screenshots please advise. Do i need to change this setting for optane to actually be working or leave it alone as it says its working fine already. Thanks in advance.

Hello Sneekyninja007, Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory & Storage Support. Based on the information you provided seems to be that your Intel® Optane™ Memory is working properly to accelerate your SATA drive and we recommend you to do not change any settings related to the RST software or your OS hardware detection with the acceleration enabled. The information that you are making reference in the RST software is just there for your information and is not a necessary step since your system is functioning normally as mentioned in the current status. As per your consent, this case is now close if you need further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us again. Best regards, Josh B.
