SpRoX Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Mjellow I have two F80s stuck on FW 2.0 and I can't seem to find a system that is able to update the FW. I have tried systems with Intel 900-, 3-, 4-, 5- and 6-series chipset, but every time I get the "Firmware for this drive not found in package" message... Is there any alternative ways of updating the firmware? I'm pretty tiered of not being able to use sleep/hibernate...! :-( /SpRoX out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Are you right clicking the tool and selecting run as admin? Chipset aside are you plugging the SSDs into ports controlled by the Intel chipset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpRoX Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 Yes, I'm running it as admin + UAC is disabled. All of the boards I've been using is Intel-only. Can't remember if I tried a SATA3-port on the 6-series -would it be worth a try? Is the update only running on Intel ports? I was thinking about giving my Asus P5N7A-VM (nVidia 730i) a go, but if it is pointless I won't bother... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Tried re downloading the update? If it won't work on any computer you try, You can ask Corsair to update the drives for you by requesting an RMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpRoX Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Yes I downloaded it very time I tried... At home I've got: Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3, i5-2500K, 4x 4GB Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS4, Q9650, 4x 2GB Corsair Zotac G41-ITX, E8500, 2x 2GB Asus X71Vn (Intel PM45 + ICH9M) Is there any reason why none of this hardware should not work? Is there a preferred chipset eg. Intel 3-series or whatever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 There isn't a really a preferred chipset, As long as it is using the Intel/AMD SATA ports it should work. Your drives may have something different that is causing the updater to not find the updater for the drive. If you want the two drives updated to 2.4, Again. You can request an RMA and ask them to update it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpRoX Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 What about OS? I'm using 64-bit Windows 7 and Server R2 fully updated... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 An OS shouldn't affect a firmware update. You can try install the latest drivers for your chipsets or try the generic Microsoft drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted July 26, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 26, 2012 With these drive you will not be able to Boot the O.S. when doing the update, it will have to be in the system as a second HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpRoX Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 I know the drive has to be connected as second HDD. Is it possible to get the drives updated without invoice/proof of purchase? I know the drives from sep. 2010... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Request an RMA and they will tell you if you need to upload your invoice or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
