<!-- [DocumentBodyStart:8e6b4cc4-42ae-4815-97cb-71b737a8d882] -->I have just bought a new x18-m G1. It has the old 8610 firmware and I planned to upgrade to the new one. Anyway it is impossible now to get the iso file from Intel's website. Any ideas of where can I get this updte now?
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi there,
Yes I can see, the firmwares update files for the Intel SSD have been removed since the problem that occurred with the latest firmware that came out for the X25M SSD. I guess they are still working to find what could have caused the problems first.
I don't find any other way for you to download the firmware at this stage, rather that wait for more information from Intel.
Cheers

Someone put this link on another thread:

Seems to be the an October FW for Intel SSDs, but I have not yet tried it.
I too have a new blank x18-m G1.
Do you think it's safe to write this FW to a blank x18-m G1, given that other people have bricked their drives and Intel has withdrawn it?

I just saw the Intel announcement:
After the release of the 02HA firmware, we have been contacted by users with SSD issues after a firmware upgrade to 02HA. If users have downloaded 02HA firmware, Intel recommends they don't upgrade until further notice. Intel has a task team in place and is pursuing a resolution on this as a high priority.
I guess I will wait for now...

androo87,
If i'm not mistaken the new firmware that was pulled does not apply to GEN1 SSD. You have a generation 1, right?
