Samsung Magician v5.0.0 - Firmware Version?

[unbobx]

I have Samsung 850 EVO 500gb installed. I'm stumped regarding Magician's display of 'Firmware Version'. What does 'Latest' mean? Am I running the latest version or the 'Latest' is something else? Very unclear and confusing!

Others have stated on this forum that 'EMT02B6Q' is the latest version. (???)

Also, there does not appear to be a firmware download on Samsung's site for my device. (again ???)

Re 'Drive Condition' - is 'Good' the "best"? Or is there 'Excellent'? (poor, fair, good, excellent?) What does 'Good' mean?

The Magician manual does not explain any of this! Why?

Looks like some of them came with the latest version of the fw on them. It's not on the Samsung site either

Dont know if it's the version of Magician youre using, others managed to get it with 4.95 or 4.97. But, if you're using Win 10 AU, it needs V5 to work

Yup the Anniversary update, you have to use Magician 5 because 4.97 doesnt work in Win10 AU

Mine says good as well so I assume it is the best. That is the latest firmware.

Thx reedo! That is good news! I did not want to go through the fw install process.
