Thanks for the tips !
Then stupid question, to do so I have to install windows on a spare drive I have, but after that in order to be able to update the firmware on my two NVMe :
Can I let the NVMe SSD with OS Sierra on it or should I format it ?
First time for me that I own and play with this new NVMe SSD, sorry for the newbie question.
Other question I have is the booting part, with apple logo, the progression bar under load in two times, is it the same for you guys ?
Let me explain, the first half of the progress bar load then black screen, apple logo and bar reapear and loads the second half.
(I don't get that on a normal mac). Is that normal or do I have a wrong setting somewhere ?
Yes, you have to install windows on a spare drive. And yes, please leave the NVMe SSD with MacOS Sierra untouched Don't format it! Otherwise you have to start from the beginning. What you just want to do is to upgrade the firmware of your EVO 960 . To do so download the Samsung Magician Software, execute the program under Windows and select your EVO 960. One of the available options is to upgrade the firmware. That's all. After the upgrade your system should always recognize the EVO 960.
Your other question: I guess the intermediate black screen while booting is just normal and might be caused by the load of the Nvidida display driver. Don't worry at all!
Cheers!
