Installing OS on XPS 8920 with Intel Optane

Hello,

I could not find the answer so if anyone has seen it please let me know. 

I'm wondering if there are any instructions on how to reinstall fresh OS (Win 10) on a system that has Intel Optane. (XPS 8920). Whether reloading the os from scratch on the existing HDD or newly installed SSD (if optane would even apply here).  I've seen a small fact sheet from Dell indicating pairing the drive with the Optane module but no real specifics.  Has anyone done this? I checked the Intel site and it seems like quite a bit of work. Or is there an easy way to do this like a step by step guide?  

In my case I'd want to either wipe out the existing HDD and start fresh or more likely install a Samsung 2.5" ssd I have on hand as the main drive at a later time.  

**If this should be in the hardware section I'll be happy to move it there** :emotion-1:

Thank you,
