Good morning,
I recently ran across a thread suggesting a user update his Optane's firmware and decided this would be a good idea for all of my Intel SSD drives, consisting of four 3610's and one Optane NVMe p4801x. I dutifully downloaded the relevant SSD updater ZIP from Intel (which is allegedly OS-agnostic), unzipped the archive, located the ISO, used BalenaEtcher to burn the ISO onto a USB stick (it verified). Then I reconfigured the boot mode to Legacy on my SuperMicro board, followed by setting the USB stick in position 1 of the boot order. Reboot, get the Supermicro splash screen, all is well until I get the following error message:
Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in the SSD firmware update? Are there any workarounds? FWIW, the USB drive will not mount on my Mac, suggesting a funky file system.
