Intel has just launched a new version of the SSD Toolbox. The recent update includes a firmware release for the 530 series SSDs meant to fix the occasional drive hang after resuming from Link Power Management slumber state.

The toolbox itself gets new descriptions for SMART attributes C2, C5, EA, and F9 with this version. Calculations for E1, F1, and F2 SMART attributes are also corrected in the new firmware, as well as the display of word 79 in the drive details screen.

Installing and updating is very simple. All you need to do is download the executable file and run it. This will install the Intel SSD Toolbox application. After that, double click the desktop shortcut and see the “firmware update” section.

Remember that powering off your machine or force-closing the process will lead to hardware malfunctions.

Download the Intel SSD Toolbox from the link below and stay “updated one minute ago.”
