Major issue with all Samsung 840 and 840 EVO SSD's

You'll be fine. It takes a month for things to start going downhill lol. Plus the fix is supposed to be out soon.

I thought something was different on mine and started to clear out files. I will just wait until next patch.

Hey Juneau, I ran the update and it says it cant find my drive. Says something about 3rd party drivers, but my drivers are provided by microsoft, unless I'm lookin in the wrong place.

Luckily the Pro didn't have the issue.

New Firmware and Samsung Magician to be released this month apparently.
