Need to make a back-up copy of the operating system (OS) image.
Because the Intel® Optane™ memory H Series contains two different media types (Intel® Optane™ Memory and NAND), backing up data is a different process from a standard SSD.
Follow any procedures provided by your system manufacturer.
If cloning any Intel® Optane™ memory volume, it is required to disable acceleration (or unpair the devices in the volume). Once disabled, use a cloning software to clone the "slow" media portion of the device. (In the case of an Intel® Optane™ memory H Series module, this would be the Intel® NAND portion.)
Once complete, re-enable acceleration.
