Hello,
I have a semi working intel 535 series 480gb drive that disappears after sometime running the OS.
Once I power cycle everything works again.
I have heard there is a dev sleep fix, but I dont have access to update the drive.
Can someone help me update this drive with newer firmware?
Thanks

Hi Kallian,
You are correct, there is a fix for the issue you are describing which seems to be related to the DevSleep feature of the SSD. This issue happens because the motherboard doesn't support the DevSleep feature of the drive, so the signal required to wake up the SSD when it enters in a low power state is not properly sent by the motherboard, therefore you see that the SSD disappear after some time.In order to fix this issue, please follow these instructions:02-01-2018 10:03 AM

I did this update and it helped.
The machine no longer crashes if I leave it idle.
I am ok with the increased power consumption of the drive, as an ssd its insignificant vs a spinning drive.
Many thanks!
