    Hi, You can use the RUFUS application within Windows, to "prepare" a usb key (formatting the key using the iso you provide) it takes a couple of minutes, then eject the USB key and boot from it ! It will detect your Samsung SSD and upgrade it. As I had problems (before the firmware upgrade)...

    << Solved >> Do the Samsung 970 EVO Plus drives work ? New Firmware Available 2B2QEXM7

    Hi, yes it finally works after the firmware patch. But on my motherboard Gigabyte H170N-Wifi and CPU INTEL i5-6500 the performance is a disappointment. I "only" get 2400 and 2600 MB/s for read and write tests. Quite far away from the 3500MB/s as advertised. is it my hardware that is too old ? JF

    << Solved >> Stuck on Prohibited Sign

    Hi, for your information, I was stuck myself although doing "all the basic". I tried using unibeast or manual installation, same issue. The problem was... my USB installer key. I noticed it was responding badly, and was slower than expected... For example when creating the installer, it did...

    Samsung 970 EVO M.2 NVMe SSD

    Hi, I also have the EVO 970 Plus. I spent some time trying to install Mojave on it. No success. When running Disk Utilities to erase the EVO 970 Plus, it gets stuck at "Delete Volume" step.
