How to enable optane memory in Acer Spin 3 (SP314-54N)?

Currently, it is disabled. And it says "there are no valid disks"

    The Optane memory goes into the same socket as the SSD uses. You can have a HDD with Optane to speed it up, or a SSD and no Optane.

    BIOS showing Optane with RAID.

    Is there a way to enable it?

    It doesn't do anything unless you have a HDD installed, are you running on a SSD instead?
