Is there anyway to upgrade the U100 Sandisk SSD firmware? The SanDisk Utility shows up as no available update, but the performance is *terrible*!

I do not know. This is not a work horse. Light web surfing eg. YouTube, Gplus, word possessing and maybe watching a movie on Plex, That's it.

The pre-installed firmware was the 1.5 and it is the latest and very stable i didnt need to upgrade. But this is for the 512GB. I don't know about other capacities if they are shipping with the latest firmware. Worst case, you can download the ocz toolbox from ocz website and upgrade to the latest firmware. But be carefull, the firmware update might be destructive (it may erase all the contents) so make sure you do the update before installing and restoring all your files and programs.

The lasted firmware v1.5 was pre-installed! But you don't mind if you install new OS. If using this SSD for Macbook, you may be need download TRIM Enable software to turn on TRIM function.Good luck for all!

I got my BD-P2500 today. They first thing I tried was to upgrade with BD-P2550 firmware. I tried both CD and USB methods. Unfortunately the player is clever enough to know it's being upgraded with the wrong firmware. Upgrading with the correct BD-P2500 firmware worked fine.Too bad. So sad.

Yes. I was disappointed. I really did not see a speed increase. My friend bought the same one and said there was. However, he upgraded to Win 8 and did clean installs. That was probably why. If want SSD speed buy an SSD drive.

The company has been out of business since December of 2010, and I would highly doubt that anyone still has files from back then. I've scoured the internet for anything related to firmware upgrades and I don't see any publications or even announcements for a firmware update. I just figured that was one of the downfalls of this frame. About your only option is to manually change the names of the files on your memory card and shuffle them that way.

I managed it to install a firmware update in my computer about 3 years ago. Updating the firmware was not what you call an easy thing to do (back in the day). But that was then. Things may have changed today. I suggest you should call "Crucial" to see what they have. That's what I did, but at the end of the day, the problem with my ssd's (my cpu would not see them) was not related to firmware update

Oh, and here is a link that will take you straight to the firmware updater so you can download the latest updates to your player: http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/156/kw/firmware/r_id/101834

No. Absolutely ZERO software for cloning, migrating, optimizing, etc.... It's really sad. NO ONE in the industry even comes close to the Samsung SSD Magician software. This is a REALLY FAST SSD though. Faster than the 840 EVO and 840 Pro.... but sometimes the add-in software makes all the difference if you're not technical. In my case, I was able to use Western Digital's branded version of Acronis TrueImage for free b/c my original boot from which I migrated was a 1TB WD Green drive.

Perhaps there are multiple revisions of this reader? A Sandisk 64gb microsdxc card works just fine in this reader (purchased about half a year ago). I remember reading one review saying how only the first 32gb was accessible, so I made sure to fill the card up as a test. Of course, this reader does not support sd3.01, so no UHS-I speeds.

I am not sure about the UEFI bios, can I can confirm that SSD comes with the latest firmware. I ccompared the firmware on my drive with the latest firmware on the crucial web site, and it was up to date. I hope this helps

I bought two SanDisk solid state drives. I installed one in a Dell all in one computer and the other in an Asus Eee PC. Both systems boot about 4 times faster and generally run faster.

Ooops: read below for someone else's actual experience with this. My original post: I suggest that you research the consequences of the upgrade, before doing it. I read somewhere that, on 4.3, you can read & write to the micro SD card (if you install one, of course), but that you cannot write to it (while installed), once the upgrade has been performed. Subject to your verification and the wisdom of others. Just something I read after I had already upgraded. BTW, upgrade was pretty effortless, FWIW.

Hi.I hope this helps. I had the same question as you did. On occassions I use the standard SD cards, but when traveling I like to use the Extreme SDHC cards. I called tech support and they told me the following.The first ones out on the market only could read Standard SD cards. The new ones being sold accepts SDHC cards. Good new if you have an older model. Sandisk offers a firmware update at their site. So you are covered.I hope this helped.

To use Intel's SSD support you need to run in RAID and your MoBo must have the correct chipset. There is a cap to the size of the SSD you can use. If not using RAID, I would go the route of Sandisk again. If running RAID or installing building a new system I'd go the other route.Using their caching software (rather than Intel's, as I don't run in Raid and didn't want to reconfigure my system), it definitely sped up my system and drastically cut my boot time.

This was my biggest beef. For such an expensive item and in todays world we should be able to get firmware updates. I am not aware of any way to update the firmware. I hope someone can prove me wrong. I do own it despite my concern.
