(hereinafter called Firmware Utility) enables users to update the firmware
on specific Samsung SSD’s connected to the computer.
This Firmware Utility supports only the Samsung 470 Series and 830

software to minimize user interaction when downloading and updating the

Samsung may provide new firmware in order to improve SSD
performance, compatibility, or user experience. A firmware update is
recommended whenever the latest firmware version is released.

Magician software should be installed in the “All Programs” section of
