CTOnews.com, February 7 (Xinhua)-- Samsung promised to release new firmware in the near future to solve the health problems of the 990 Pro after introducing 5B2QGXA7 firmware for the 980 Pro solid-state drive, fixing problems such as locking to read-only mode.

The 990 PRO is Samsung's current flagship consumer SSD,1TB with a price of up to 999 yuan and a 2TB of 2199 yuan. Robbie Khan, editor of foreign technology media Neowin, wrote in January that the health of his 990 PRO declined too fast a few days after it was purchased, while Samsung officials refused to guarantee it.

According to the article, just a few days after the purchase of 990 Pro 2TB, according to the SMART data of Samsung Magician and third-party tools, the health of the solid state drive has dropped to 99%, while his previous purchase of a Samsung solid state drive has been written to more than 40TB, and the health degree is still 99% after 1.5 years of use, so the new solid state drive is obviously abnormal.

Samsung officials said it had confirmed the recurrence of the problem in internal tests, and the company promised to fix it through firmware updates. CTOnews.com translated the responses from Samsung community members as follows:

Hello, everyone. We have received feedback from technicians:

Samsung is currently reviewing customer queries about the percentage of SMART usage (on Samsung Magician) and health status (on Crystal Disk Info) of Samsung SSD 990 PRO.

We can reproduce this error in some use cases.

To address this problem, Samsung is expected to release a firmware update in February.
