gordongekko Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Any firmware updates for the R60? It is now December, and as far as I can tell you last answered this question in September. Should I expect no updates? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordongekko Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 No, I am not having any current issues. I am prepping to install an R60 in a new build right now. One of the things that CPU Magazine recommends when installing a new SSD is to flash the drive to the latest version of firmware. That is what I am trying to determine, if new firmware is available.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 13, 2010 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 13, 2010 And I am sorry but no there are no updates at this time for the Reactor series SSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordongekko Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 Thanks for the quick and timely response. I do have a couple of followup questions. Will the Reactor series ever have a firmware update? I was planning on following the installation instructions provided by the October 2010 issue of CPU Magazine, pages 31-33 http://www.computerpoweruser.com/Images/SmartComputing/DigitalIssues/CPU_1010/pageflip.html This is my first SSD install. Are these instructions ok, or do you have other suggestions? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 14, 2010 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 14, 2010 The link just goes to their main site not to an article, but the drive was released with the latest Firmware available and there is no plan at this time to release an update.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 17, 2010 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 17, 2010 I am sorry but I am not allowed to comment on anything not published by corsair. I would suggest contacting that magazine for more information if you still have questions. And I see nothing in that article about our drives or specifically our Reactor series drives.

Synbios Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Any firmware updates for the R60? It is now December, and as far as I can tell you last answered this question in September. Should I expect no updates? Thanks. I would not obsess over this issue as the Reactor drive is very stable, and supports TRIM natively with firmware version 1.0. There are no firmware-related problems. Most of the time SSDs have updated firmware to add TRIM support, but like I mentioned with the Reactor drive this is not necessary.
