IntelUser2525 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Καλά νέα. Here is some info from Samsung and the reason behind the fault. "Because of an error in the flash management software algorithm in the 840 EVO, a drop in performance occurs for the data that has been written only once after purchasing the drive. SSDs usually calibrate changes in the statuses of cells over time with the flash management software algorithm. Due to the error in the software algorithm, the 840 EVO performed read-retry processes aggressively, resulting in a drop in read performance. This only occurs if the data was kept in its initial cell without changing, and there are no symptoms of reduced read performance if the data was migrated from those cells or overwritten. In other words, as the SSD is used more and more over time, the performance drop disappears naturally. For those who want to solve the issue quickly, this software will restore the read performance. The time taken to complete the procedure depends on the amount of data stored. The error only results in a drop in read performance, and there are no issues related to data loss or reliability. " Q&A 1) What is the cause of the issue, and can it be resolved? → The drop in the read speed of old blocks of data is attributed to an error in the software algorithm. The problem can be solved easily with the software upgrade. 2) Can this issue be fully addressed by a simple software upgrade? → Yes. After the upgrade, the software will maintain the regular performance. With continued use, the performance will remain stable. 3) Is this issue considered to be an epidemic problem or limited to a specific batch of production? → No, this issue can be easily solved by the software upgrade. 4) How many units have been affected? → We are not able to provide specific figures. 5) Are there any side effect or negative consequences of upgrading the firmware (e.g. have to reformat the drive)? → No, upgrading the firmware does not have any side effects. The upgrade is a very simple process, but the time it takes to upgrade varies depending on the size of the data stored to the drive. 6) Besides 840 EVO are there any other line-ups that are affected? → No, this error has only been observed on the 840 EVO series.

gerstavros Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Αν και δεν είχα κάποια μείωση στην απόδοση, θα κάνω το update να κάνω σύγκριση αμέσως μετά Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
