Hello SJW,

We understand you have one of the SSD 535 series, but this does not appear in our retail list, as you can see in http://ark.intel.com/products/series/86825/Consumer-SSDs this link.We would like to know:-Where did you get the drive from?-Did you try to run the firmware version that fixes the write amp? (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26452/Write-Amp-Firmware-for-Intel-SSD-530-535-Series Here is the link)Please let us know if this works, we'll be waiting for your response.Regards,Nestor C

Thanks for your reply.

I searched the 256GB drive using "SSDSC2BW256H601" and found a PDF from intel https://qdms.intel.com/dm/i.aspx/2FB5BCC3.../PCN114318-01.pdf pdf's link

I come from Taiwan and bought the drive from "德源電腦有限公司" here is the website http://deyuan-pc.com.tw/ link

Yes i tried that firmware but i got "status: The selected Intel SSD contains current firmware as of this tool release".

I also tried intel ssd toolbox and it's firmware update button still gray.
