    Intel SSD Dead after firmware update

    Looks like it may be AHCI related, after every ghost restore my drive would re-corrupt after first reboot. This time after restore I set the bios to compatibility SATA only mode instead of Enhance IDE, or Enhanced AHCI mode. Now even though I have the end-to-end SMART error I can boot up and the...

    Intel SSD G2 TRIM firmware failure rate

    My bad upgrade was on a Asus server motherboard, on a Windows Server 2008 x64 R2 system upgraded from Server 2008, so no 100mb partition here. Another odd thing is if I put the drive in IDE mode smart reports a bad drive, but if I put in in AHCI mode SMART reports everything is A-OK, even though...

    Intel SSD Dead after firmware update

    Here's the old firmware: http://www.kbench.com/software/hit.jsp?no=35840 But it refuses to flash older firmware on a device with newer firmware. Anyone able to do anything with this to force a downgrade?

    Intel SSD Dead after firmware update

    Ran the update on two 160gb G2 drives on two separate systems. On the Dell D630 Laptop the update ran fine. The other on a Dual Xeon server running Server 2008 R2 corrupted after reboot with the same failure/bad SMART data as described many times in this thread.

    OCZ: Our PCIe solid-state drives are available

    Seems like a rip to me, cheaper to build your own raid, and with the right controller card get much better performance.

    Intel G2 SSD suttering on Win7

    Applying a Secure Erase across the drive isn't the same as writing 0's across the drive or formating the drive. A secure erase marks each SSD cell as empty. Read up on TRIM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM_%28SSD_command%29 to find out why a deleted or written to SSD cell isn't the same as...

    Intel G2 SSD suttering on Win7

    Google came up with nothing? You can get the latest verison of HDDErase here: http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/SecureErase.shtml Hardware compatibility for HDDErase is pretty mediocre, and didn't work on the three motherboards I have around me. I instead used hdparm from an Ubuntu 9.04...
