Firmware update fails

[feline1]

Well, I'm on Windows 10 Pro (64 bit) now and the Corsair Toolbox still FAILS.

Corsair, you are rubbish!

I also retried the v1.0 Toolbox. That still fails too! :)

Hi all, you must switch in bios to AHCI from IDE, i have the same prob.

I have a Corsair Neutron GTX 120GB with firmware 306. I had the same issue with update fails. No details, can't find a log. I did eventually get it to flash by removing it from the laptop and plugging it in USB using a SATA-to-USB adapter. MAKE SURE YOU PERFORM A BACKUP FIRST..... and ALWAYS!



Try #1: Booted up on Windows 10 64-bit with drive as AHCI: FAILED immediately

Try #2: Removed drive from laptop and connected to another Windows 10 64-bit as eSATA using AHCI: FAILED immediately.

Try#3: Same as Try #2, Windows 10 64-bit, but using a USB-to-SATA adapter: Ran through the progress bar then came up "FAILED". The drive was inaccessible. I let it sit for 60 seconds, and the drive became re-accessible. Then I waited another 60 seconds and power cycled the drive. It came up as firmware 311, upgraded from 306. I call it successful!

I hope this helps.

Still failing for me today on the latest toolbox

I guess this Corsair Toolbox is basically 'trollware'.

I have a Force LS SSD 120GB as a Win10 Pro x64 & apps drive only. Using the latest v1.2.4.2 Toolbox im having the same issue, update fails! Trying to update from S9FM02.6 to S9FM02.8.

If you are not experiencing any problems with the SSD, then a firmware update really is not necessary.
