@LAEJ, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
 

It looks like you're trying to enable RAID or Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) on your OMEN Laptop - 15-ek0062la, which includes a 27.3 GB Optane module and a 512 GB SSD.
Here are some key points and steps to consider:

Why You Might Not See RAID/IRST Options in BIOS

1. BIOS Version or Configuration: Some OMEN laptops may have these options hidden or disabled by default in the BIOS. You may need to update your BIOS or unlock advanced settings.
2. Optane Configuration: If Optane memory is already configured in a certain mode (e.g., AHCI), switching to RAID might require disabling Optane first.
3. Intel RST Driver Dependency: The Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver must be installed in Windows for full functionality, but BIOS-level RAID settings should still be visible if supported.

Steps to Try

Access BIOS Setup:

• Turn off your laptop.
• Power it on and immediately press Esc repeatedly until the Startup Menu appears.
• Press F10 to enter BIOS Setup.

Check for Advanced or Hidden Settings:

• Look under the Advanced or Configuration tab.
• If RAID or IRST options are not visible, your BIOS may not expose them by default.

Enable RAID (if available):

• If you see an option like SATA Mode or Storage Configuration, change it from AHCI to RAID.
• Save and exit BIOS.

Install Intel RST in Windows:

• After enabling RAID, boot into Windows and install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.

BIOS Update:

• If the RAID option is missing, check for a BIOS update on the HP support site.

Disable Optane (if needed):

• If Optane is enabled, you may need to disable it via the Intel RST software in Windows before changing BIOS settings.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
