Where is download link? I can't see it in first post.

My fault. You're right, 1.4.7.0 is very old driver for Samsung Enterprise SSDs. Dell providing updated version 2.0.8.1611 (Server 2008-2012 R2) for IDs: A820, A821 and A822. It is dated 11/15/2016.

Driver is availible here:

OK, thank you for explanation.

Hi, I am new to win-raid! I am in search of the latest Samsung driver for my SM961 drive and got diverted to this very thread.

I now have downloaded the pure drivers but I don't think Windows 10 likes to get the driver updated when I do it via device manager.
What is the proper way to replace the stock MS driver with this one here?

Thanks!

I do observe with my i750 400GB device when using Intel NVMe driver v4.0.0.1007 a severe performance issue !
Using Intel NVMe driver v3.1.0.1021 or MS native NVMe driver I get no problems.
Benchmark tests done with UserBenchmark Tool from UserBenchmark.com company did also confirm this severe issue.


Is it possible for you to do some tests to confirm the same issue and get a confirmation that Intel NVMe driver v4.0.0.1007 is buggy ?

@Fernando,
Thanks for your attention on this driver issue.
Coming back to Intel NVMe driver v3.2.0.1002 I get no longer 'abnormal' performance issue on this PC fully Spectre vulnerability fixed.
The problem is specific to driver v4.0.0.1007 as you can compare with this correct result with v3.2.0.1002:

Hi, I am looking for driver TOSHIBA KXG50ZNV1T02 NVME 1024GB for windows 7.
I have Alienware r3 i7 running 2 harddisk: NVME TOSHIBA 1024GB and HGST SATA HDD.
I've tried to boot using usb thumbdrive and load all the toshiba NVME driver I found in internet, but unsuccessfull (still not detect the NVME harddisk).

Could you please help?

Hi Fernando,
The system disk drive with OS is NVME TOSHIBA, able to boot up to win 10. I want to install windows 7.
Somehow I dont see any driver when I browse and point to mod+signed OCZ driver. Did I miss any step?

Such "pure" drivers can only be installed manually from within the Device Manager.
This is the way to do it:
1. Import the Win-RAID CA Certificate.
2. Open (expand) the "Storage Controllers" section of the Device Manager.
3. Right-click onto the listed NVMe Controller and choose the options " Update driver" > "Browse my computer..." > "Browse".
4. Then navigate to the folder, which contains the desired unzipped driver files, and click "OK".
If you should get the message, that "the best driver is already running", you have to use the "Let me pick..." option, to hit the "Have Disk" button and to navigate to the INF file, which is within the driver folder.
