How do I install the latest Samsung SSD firmware update (DXM04B0Q)? The Magician software is supposed to do it, but when I open up the download folder where the firmware update download is located, the Magician software doesn't see it. I've downloaded the firmware in many different locations, but still, the Magician software doesn't see it. Any Ideas? See snips to see firmare update download location and what Magician software sees. The firmware update (DXM04B0Q) is right below the Symantic folder.
Couple of things you can try.
- Move the DXM04B0Q folder to your desktop. Does the Samsung Magician see it?
- If still no joy, try letting the Magician download the firmware. Verify it downloaded the correct version.

Thank you for the guide. This is the best one that I've seen.
I've tried using both IE and Firefox for the firmware update. I've let the Magician download the software. I've downloaded the firmware to the desktop and to different folders that the Magician showed. In all cases, the Magician doesn't see the software. Any ideas?

When I open them up, there are two .enc downloads that Windows doesn't know how to open. See snip of opened latest firmware download. For some reason, the Magician software doesn't see download.

Have you actually extracted those files somewhere from the .zip file or are you just opening the folder? Right-click the .zip file and extract to a location, and THEN point the software to that spot and see if it will pick it up.

This was the trick. I extracted the files and they were left in the folder. Then I clicked on downloads where the folder is and the Magician software saw them. I was able to safely install the firmware. Thanks a bunch!!

Guys, thank you so much for helping me with this. it had me stumped. I had tried extracting the files, but I didn't try looking for the folder with the extracted files afterwards for some reason. Thanks a bunch!
