lenovo188 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Hello I searched the forum and couldn't find an answer, namely when I Install Samsung magician 4.5 on my y510p, after scanning for drive information (also if you click refresh drive information button) I get an error stating that magician is unable to find a samsung SSD connected to my system and it also says i should always use latest storage driver or microsoft driver and I cant acess disk, system, data management and advanced features . The SSD is recognized in BIOS (im using modded bios from svl7), the SSD is recognized in device manager -> disk drives (I use win 8.1 64bit) and shows "Provider: Microsoft date: 21.6.2006 version: 6.3.9600.16384" is this the latest driver? Had anyone else had similar problems with samsung magician? What about Intel rapid storage technology from lenovo site? On intel site i could only find the same program for RAID setups, does the samsung ssd benefit from it or do only intel ssds benefit?

faiz7957 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 hello i think i found something relevant to your question over in the lenovo forums seems like others have issues with this ssd and samsung magician as its an oem?https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-U-and-S-Series-Notebooks/U430-SSD-firmwire-update/td-p/1481952.sorry couldn't be of more help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenovo188 Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 thanks for the reply, I did check it out further so as it appears oem versions are not supported by the software :/Edit: I also finally found this [h=3]Does Magician support all SSDs?[/h] SSD Magician only supports Samsung-branded SSDs. Samsung-manufactured OEM SSDs are not supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
