Hi Pete, what if this "Intel Optane problem" is not Qubes specific and it's just this SSD (?) is faulty. Do you have any warranty left to RMA and try a different Optane, or even better - take a completely different SSD to avoid supporting Intel corporation with your money, funding the next generation of ME-like backdoors.
