Modding a Z170 to use I9 9900k. would it also work with Optane?

Hello, i’m planning to modd my Sabertooth Z170 Mark 1 to use with my I9 9900K.
would it be possible to also use 256GB Optane ?

You can only use it as a regular 256GB SSD storage device.

Sunrise Point-H chipsets don’t support Optane except for HM175, QM175 and C236 and then only when the vendor has enabled it.
