How'd you get this to work? I've tried everything I can think of to restore this ISO to a USB and I'm getting nowhere. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the firmware link however I'm not sure it's helpful. The file available is for Windows and Mac in a single ISO and I definitely can't get it to be recognized as the one poster found. The people who have gotten it to work provided no steps or guidance whatsoever. Again I'm going to...

Thanks I'll give that a shot looks like the guide says I have to use a CD which is shitty considering I don't have a CD drive on any computer let alone my customac. I just tried creating USB from their ISO file with Disk Utility and by hand with Terminal on a real mac in 10.11.6, but Disk...

The drive isn't actually a pro or evo line. just plain 840. It's this one http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/MZ-7TD250BW i looked up the firmware and i have the latest (and only) firmware according to Samsung's site. Any other clues? had my hopes up on this one :(

Wow okay. Weeks of searching and I was looking tithe wrong thing. The chipset, not the drive. I'll look into it. Thanks.

Like I said in the bold edit above, I installed the intel one and it does read intel now but the issue remains. If I remove both the generic and intel ones from /library/extensions and reboot it shows generic again. Is the system referencing another kext that was installed by multibeast to a...

Hi Stork, I've followed this guide and your Hector build guide and the one thing I can't seem to get working is my SSD speeds. They seem extremely slow when moving/copying files around in Finder both on the main SSD and to other SSD/HDD in the system. I initially had the 3rd party SATA kext...

Wondering if you have any experience with this on El Cap? I am having slowness issues with my SSD. I had the Generic 3rd Party SATA thing installed, but switched to the Intel one when I realized I should be using it. Still seeing only about 30-50 MB/sec when using Finder to copy files. Thanks...

Is there any similar procedure when using Clover? I am experiencing very slow SSD speeds as well with El Cap and a Samsung 840.

Everything looks normal in the attached screenshot. 6 Gigabit. I installed the 3rd Party SATA because I followed the exact guide for Stork's Hector build http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/storks-entry-level-hector-build-ga-h97n-wifi-i5-4690-hd4600-gtx-750-ti.136386/ and accompanying guide for...

Anyone? I don't want to abandon customac, but I can't really live with this sluggish read/write.

Does anyone have any ideas, this is my only stumbling block! Thanks!

**I've done a lot of searching and can't find any specific answers or answers that are working for me. Please see my post later in the thread as well.** I don't feel that my SSD is operating at maximum speed when doing operations in Finder such as copying files and creating zip files. I think...

Thanks I think I am getting proper speed on USB now.

Really hoping someone has some guidance here. Thanks!
