Hi,
I have an Acer Nitro AN 515-52 with Optane Memory Pre Installed (NH.Q49SI.001). Unfortunately due to some error my Windows had failed and had to be reinstalled by the Technician.
The Technician created partitions and set boot on the HDD but I feel like the Optane Memory is not being used as its intended as I can find it as Local Disk E.
How can I restore it like it used to be or make it faster. I find no Intel Memory applications installed on my device and a lot of the apps pre installed cannot be found.
Also if I want to add an SSD is the HDD to be replaced or the Optane Memory?
Thanks in advance. Any help will be much appreciated

    Check this link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000023853/memory-and-storage/intel-optane-memory.html
    About ssd, you can install a ssd m2 2280 sata 3 or nvme gen3x4 of at least 512gb! But you will need to remove the optane memory!

    Hi, Thanks for the prompt reply.
    However the link shows a guide for cases before the operating system is installed.
    I currently have Windows up and running.
    Also any precautions to be taken before playing around with this?
