Intel Pulls X25-M G2 TRIM Firmware Update
« on: November 04, 2009, 01:45:16 AM »

Just one day after Intel released a firmware update for its second-generation 34nm X25-M SSD, Intel has decided to temporarily pull the TRIM update and the associated SSD Toolbox software. Various reports on the Intel Support Community indicate that the firmware was bricking drives under Windows 7 rather than providing the promised 40-percent speed boost.

I can see the poor sap now talking to a co-worker, "Look Bill, they are so happy with me I got a piece of pretty pink paper in this envelope...."
