Dual Boot issue - AHCL or intel rst premium with intel optane system acceleration

I am trying to dual boot Ubuntu 18.04 on my new laptop, which is an Asus ROG with windows 10 UEFI, core i7, 512GB SSD and 16GB RAM.
On the installation type page, there were no download options and couldn't see any disk partitions. On exploring the web, I found out that the issue may be related to RAID and AHCI. I checked the boot settings and under the SATA Mode Selection there were two options:

  1. AHCI
  2. intel rst premium with intel optane system acceleration\

Should I change it to AHCI? What effect would it have on the system? Please refer to the image attached. Is there any other issue causing this problem?
