Magicians will keiner. Ich will nur die iso für die neue fw

Wer mutig ist, kann hier schon mal die neue Version 4.6 von Magician testen. Offiziell downloaden von Samsung kann man sie zur Zeit nicht, daher auf eigenes Risiko.
Bei OCZ weiss ich zumindest wo ich als endverbraucher stehe.
The new firmware will be available 'later this month' .

Read on for our full evaluation of the new firmware and Magician 4.6!
Now we have the fix and I can report on what it is actually doing and accomplishing. I've been working with the new firmware and a beta version of Magician 4.6 (to be released today as I understand). Before getting into the actual results, I'll post the Q+A I had with Samsung as we were testing. This should explain at least what we expect to see:
Q: The new firmware appears to restore read performance without the need for Magician. How was this accomplished?
A: Samsung revised the firmware algorithm to maintain consistency in performance for old data under exceptional circumstances. Therefore, read performance was restored without the need for Magician. This algorithm is based on a periodic refresh feature that can maintain the read performance of this older data. The algorithm does not affect normal user scenarios (i.e. occasional PC performance degradation due to background work of SSD) or the lifespan of an SSD and can actively maintain its performance without the help of Magician. However, this algorithm does not operate when the power is off.
Q: Are there any functions of the new Magician that are required to keep read performance high?
A: The read performance has been improved by the revised firmware algorithm. If performance recovery is slow in instances where the SSD did not have enough run-time for the firmware algorithm to reach normal performance levels, or similarly, had been powered off for an extended amount of time, the performance can be recovered by using the Advanced Performance Optimization feature in Magician 4.6. This is a supplementary feature to maintain normal performance for a few exceptional circumstances.
Q: What is the upgrade process for those who did not previously upgrade using the performance restoration tool (meaning they are still on the original firmware)? Is it possible to skip directly to this new firmware and not use the performance restoration tool?
A: Users can upgrade to the new firmware through Magician 4.6, without using the performance restoration tool.
Q: Will there be a firmware update for the other Samsung TLC-based SSD models that have also demonstrated this read performance issue? If so, which models and how soon will that firmware be made available?
A: This issue had been reported for the 840 EVO SSD only.
**Edit** The new firmware will be available 'later this month'.
...so we have a firmware that can do its own periodic refreshing of data, along with an 'Advanced Performance Optimization' that can be triggered from within Samsung SSD Magician. Those that had not updated their 840 EVO before this update can skip directly to the new firmware without the need to run the old 'Performance Restoration Tool'. We were a bit disappointed to see Samsung still ignoring their other TLC SSDs, on which many have reported seeing the same type of slow down (us included), but we've pushed that one about as hard as we could. For now, lets focus on the 840 EVO and see if this fix is really what it claims to be.

deswegen -->Warum sollte das ein Fake sein?
oldmcwinzi, so kann eben jeder das Problem selbst beheben, was ich ja auch schon lange schreibe...
Übrigens braucht man Geduld da Samsung ein Downloadlimit eingeführt hat, man möchte offenbar nicht die Probleme beim FW Update der 850 Pro erneut erleben und wenn, dann sollen wenigstens nicht so viele User betroffen sein. Damals war die neue FW zwar in Ordnung, aber beim Updatevorgang sind einige SSDs kaputt gegangen und mussten getauscht werden. Wer also das Update nicht laden kann, der sollte bis zum 27. warten, dann will Samsung das Limit entfernen und wenn die FW zurückgezogen wurden, seid froh statt zu meckern, denn dann hat es auch da beim Update Probleme gegeben.
