I just installed a 530 SSD in my mid-2009 MBP. It seems to be working fine. I figured I should update the firmware, but I am unable to get the Intel® SATA Solid-State Drive Firmware Update Tool version 2.0.9 to work. I burned the ISO using both a Mac and a Win7 machine. In both cases it appears to burn correctly, but when I boot from either disc, I get a "no bootable device" message.
After searching the forums a bit, I tried unpacking issdfut_2.0.9.iso to check for iSSDFUT.exe, but it is not present in the ISO. Here's the contents of the ISO. I have downloaded it and unpacked it on two separate Macs and a Win7 PC and I see the same thing. I downloaded the ISO from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18363 Download Center
CONTENTS
initrd
vmlinuz
isolinux (directory)
isolinux\boot.cat
isolinux\isolinux.bin
isolinux\isolinux.cfg
licenses (directory with tons of folders with license files in them)
Is the contents of the ISO correct? Is there something else I am supposed to be doing to update the firmware for my Intel 530 SSD in my mid-2009 MBP? Thanks!

Hi Mrick,
Can you clarify a bit? Does the update not succeed or is the speed still not what you expected?
Thanks.

Thanks for the update Nicklas. I've reported your results to engineering.

Soon I've had my drive for a full year. Any news about when I will be able to run it at full speed?
