Do you ran latest firmware on 960 Evo 1Tb M.2?

[Alexander Eberhard]

Hi,

Samsung magician gave me a firmware update notification on my system today. It will be the latest one. Is it safe to install? Everything works fine now so don't want to mess things up. Any benefits to that update? Also I can't find any release notes.

Thank you,

Alex

Also is there a way to maximize performance by increasing its cache?

The 960 EVO holds its own by boasting up to 400 TBW for the 1TB capacity model and is backed by a 3-year limited warranty. Dynamic Thermal Guard prevents overheating, protecting your data and ensuring optimal performance.

How is that answer related to my initial question?

Finally, Samsung made 2TB model of Samsung 960 Pro M.2 NVMe SSD, although I have to buy AIC adapter to install additional SSD. That way, I can fill the rest of my favorite game titles in SSD to load games faster, feel responsive, smooth, and have consistent framerate. And of course, I can install patches very fast, compared to traditional AHCI/SATA SSD.
