Corsair Accelerator 45GB SSD Firmware 5.05a for Windows 7

IMPORTANT:

- If you are stable and do not have issues, we suggest that you do not flash your firmware.
- This update is intended to not be destructive. However, we strongly urge that you back up any important data before beginning this procedure.
- Be sure to download the correct update file for your drive. Many complaints we have seen were the result of downloading the wrong file for your drive.
- This update has been validated for use with Windows 7. It has not been validated with Windows Vista and Windows XP however it may work with these OS's. Users are encouraged to update the drives with Windows 7 when possible.
- This update tool is intended to be run with the drive controller in AHCI mode. If your drive controller is not AHCI enabled and your update fails, you will need to change it to AHCI mode and also enable AHCI in your OS registry.
- If you have issues updating using the Microsoft AHCI driver, you may need to update using the latest driver from your drive controller manufacturer. The reverse is also true. If you have issues updating using the latest drivers from your controller manufacturer, we suggest you try the latest MS AHCI driver.
- Our latest testing is only with Intel and AMD drive controllers. The update may not work with 3rd party drive controllers. The update will not work on a controller that is in RAID mode. This applies to SATA2 and SATA3 controllers.
- DO NOT at any time power off your system during this procedure. This may “brick” your drive.
