Was reading through some stuff on this forum regarding updating the RST dxe drivers, was looking at different ways to get a Optane H20 working with my GPD Win 3 as a little project. Having looked a little further I came to realise that the RST dxe drivers were unlikely to be the issue, would perhaps need to look into enabling PCI-E bifurcation again (back to step 1, aka what I originally thought may be the problem).
Apologies if I seem like I’m all over the place, I’ve spent about 16 hours messing with settings and attempting to flash the UEFI (didn’t work, though probably for the better at the moment).
Too be honest I would have thought it would’ve worked without issue, being a 11th Gen mobile processor etc. Think there might be some missing/broken features in the UEFI preventing it from detecting the 32GB cache portion, the QLC appears without issue though.
Anyways I’m all ears at this point
Edit: For anyone wondering why, low latency page file and why not
“Intel Optane Memory H Series devices require specific motherboard and BIOS support, check with your motherboard/system vendor for specific support for these devices.”
“Intel® Optane™ Memory H10 with Solid State Storage and Intel® Optane™ Memory H20 with Solid State Storage are supported on 12th Generation Intel® Processors with Intel RST driver version 19.0.”
Oh and by the way, you have a system (Handled) based on Intel Tiger lake U Mobile platform… not a desktop chipset… kind of asking too much on this kind of platform, my pov only, wait for other user opinion.
Right, had a look into it a bit more and I’m at a point where I don’t think it’s possible. I’ll probably save the Optane module for some other project later on, just this platform in particular just doesn’t seem to like it.
