Hello forum,
I just bought a Samsung 850 Evo 500 GB SSD and performed a clean install using my Lenovo recovery media. My laptop had a 500 GB HDD and a 16 GB M.2. caching SSD. I replaced the 500 GB HDD, after it failed, with the Samsung SSD.
I have an Intel(R) 8 Series Chipset Family AHCI Controller and Windows says the drivers are up to date.
Now, I am facing 2 issues while using the Samsung Magician software:
1. Even though it says a firmware update is available, when I try to update from firmware EMT01B6Q to EMT02B6Q, it repeatedly fails.
2. I also could not authenticate the serial number of my SSD using the magician software.
I would be grateful if anyone can help me find a solution to these issues.
I also have a question regarding the partitions automatically created by windows 7 professional during the installation. I have attached the screenshot below. I am wondering if this is okay.
