Hi mate,

When did you purchase this SSD?
Did the SSD still work or not.
Or just you can't upgrade.

[BenchAndGames]

I bought the previous 30 days, and the SSD is still working perfect.
But you can not upgrade.
My question is, "why"

[G.SKILL]

Hi BenchAndGames,

the tools of firmware cannot be reognize was becasue:
1. using Intel 10.0 SATA driver ( please using the windows standard driver)
2. set up the IDE to AHCI
3. the partition was not the windows's OS
4. some of the chipsets (nVIDIA)
please confirm with these and hope everything will be fine

Hi,

got the same problem. I bought a Phoenix Pro (FM-25S2S-60GBP2) just a week ago. After installing Windows 7 i noticed, that there is a problem with the energy modes. I get a BSOD when i return from stand-by.
Using google told me that there is a problem with the sandforce controller an energy saving.
So I decided to update the Firmware in hope to get rid of this problem.

But my SSD is not recognized by the SSD Updater.
I checked all this hints (1. using Intel 10.0 SATA driver, 2. set up the IDE to AHCI, 3. the partition was not the windows's OS, 4. some of the chipsets (nVIDIA))
but my SSD is still not found.

Hi nafets,

If you bought this SSD a week ago, you don't have to upgrade firmware.
It had already been the latest firmware.
This issue(awake from stand by)) hasn't solved yet.
If we get new firmware about this issue, we will release as soon as possible.

Hi GSKILL,

It had already been the latest firmware.

Maybe... is there a different way to see the version of the firmware?
And telling me that this is the latest firmware does not solve the problem that the SSD is not recognized ;-)

This issue(awake from stand by)) hasn't solved yet.

*argh* to be not able to use stand-by is an NO GO for a Laptop/Netbook

If we get new firmware about this issue, we will release as soon as possible.

I hope so!!

Please don't use Intel driver when uses upgrade tool.
The upgrade tool would not recognize SSD via Intel 10.0 driver.
Using windows standard driver would be better.

i have tried changing to microsoft drivers from device manager but still nothing however my drive has a windows partition on it

Hi abdultaiyab,

as we metion before, here are the reason your SSD will not be recognized
1. using Intel 10.0 SATA driver ( please using the windows standard driver)
2. set up the IDE to AHCI
3. the partition was not the windows's OS
4. some of the chipsets (nVIDIA)
if your motherboard using nVIDIA chopsets, it may cause this problem and we still waiting Sandforce to provide the solution.

Please don't use Intel driver when uses upgrade tool.
The upgrade tool would not recognize SSD via Intel 10.0 driver.
Using windows standard driver would be better.

Sorry that you missunderstood me.
I did all the changes you suggested but the SSD is not recognized

1. use the "standard ACHI 1.0 serial ATA-Controller" by Microsoft
2. switched IDE mode in Bios to AHCI
3. use 2 Windows and 1 Linux Partition on the SSD
4. Chipset Tigerpoint NM10 (Intel? Atom? Pineview-M N455)
