SSDPEKKW256G7 600P series with GA Z170X UD5 - Intel Solid State Drive Toolbox Optimizer tools grayed out.

Installed Series 600P SSD PEKKW256G7 in a new box with Gigabyte GA Z170X UD5.  Updated MB BIOS to F20 and installed Intel Solid State Toolbox where I updated SSD firmware to PSF109C.  Attempted to install Intel Rapid Storage Technology tool but am getting errors (does not run). Computer recognizes SSD as HDD and when benchmarking all drives using Defraggler, this drive is no faster than my other HDD.  My old SSD is much faster.  Using the Intel Solid State Drive Toolbox, all of the Optimizer tools are grayed out.  Any ideas to fix this would be greatly appreciated.  What should I check next?


Intel Warranty Coverage Check

I have an issue doing a warranty check on an intel ssd 535 series which died.  I keep getting "your product could not be located" on different browsers.  See attached jpg.  This seems to be limited to the 535 series, as I have checked serial numbers for 525, 530, 540 and 600P series ssd and have no issues.  I have checked two different serial numbers for the 535 series and both get errors.

I have a question regarding Intel P3608.

i don't know if we get all the performance from the NVMe Intel P3608.

is there any other way to test the performance?

 

thx

I need to get SSD serial number and number of blocks used and some of the SSD characteristics through my code.

So I need to use Intel.SSDFeatures.2.0.0.dll. Is there any API document available for development purpose.

Intel 600p SSD issue

I just bought the Intel 512gb 600p and when i install alcohol 120% it asks me to install a driver called SPTD which is located at the following websitehttp://www.duplexsecure.com/downloads/

 

DuplexSecure - Downloads

 

The problem is that after i install SPTD for windows 10 i have to reboot and then upon rebooting i get an error called inaccessable_boot_device

 

I am curious if anyone else is experiencing anything like this?

And if anyone is curious and tries installing SPTD, please make a restore point before you do so as thats the only way to fix the issue

downgrade firmware from 8DV101F0 to 8DV10171

Hi,

 

We are currently using Intel SSD SSDPE2MD400G4 (intel-nvme) P3700 for vmware vsan 6.0 U2 p4.

 

About two weeks ago, we are having problem with the nvme so that vmware support ask us to upgrade the firmware to the latest.

 

At the time of delivery, the nvme used 8DV10171

Now, nvme use 8DV101F0

 

Unfortunately, after we check the latest firmware have not certified by vmware (we are using vmware vsan.

 

The support ask us (again) to downgrade the firmware to 8DV10171

 

Is there any workaround for downgrade the firmware ?

 

we have try several tools but is does not work.

Tools said that we already using the latest firmware.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks.

How to re-enable SSD in 'disable logical state'

$

Hi,

 

due to a small mishap (hot-unplug of a card while server was still powered) one of my P3500's has gone into "disable logical state".

 

The card itself gets detected fine but I cant access the VM datastore on it. I have moved the drive to a Windows box and can run isdct on it but all I get is the disabled state.

 

Can you please let me know how to re-enable the drive.

Let me know what additional info you need.

 

Thanks

Serious performance regression with DC P3700 2TB AIC drive

$

Hi,

 

we've got a couple of servers, each with one of the DC P3700 2TB AIC drives and we see a serious performance regression after a couple of hours.

 

Initially, before we run the application tests, we quickly tested the I/O performance using `dd` writing 100 8GB files with a consistent rate of 2GB/s. After that, another `dd´ run reading these 100 files with direct IO and resulting in a consistent rate of 1.1GB/s. File system is XFS - but also tested ext4. (We're aware that this is not a solid test - but good enough to get some indication that the drive's working with a consistent write and read throughput.)

The actual test is an application, that usually just writes at 100MB/s and no reads, periodically peaking to 600MB/s writes and 150MB/s reads - everything's sequential I/O. This works for a couple of hours. But after that, IO performance degrades to a few MB/s. Even after the application has been stopped and the same `dd` tests show that write throughput's degraded to maybe 200MB/s and reads to 100MB/s.

We would have expected the drive to eventually degrade a bit, but not to 200/100 MB/s.

 

ext4 resulted in a generally worse performance than XFS. But the general behaviour (throughput regression) is the same on all machines.

 

Generally, we can also reproduce kernel panics in combination with isdct. One way to cause a kernel panic is to issue "isdct delete -intelssd"; the command completes but shortly after that, the kernel panic occurs.

 

Do you have any idea what may cause these behaviours and how to fix these?

1.2 TB Intel SSD 750 Series trouble

$

My PC has been operating properly now for several months with no issues. However, all of a sudden now my motherboard seemingly does not find the Intel 750 SSD on a cold boot. Strangely enough when I remove the SSD from the PCIe slot and place it back, the computer boots into windows (installed on the Intel 750 SSD). This happens every time. In fact, if I let the PC go to sleep, it happens then too. I am wondering if there is something wrong with the SSD? I have gone through and checked/updated all drivers for the SSD and the computer/operating system/SSD seem to work just fine once I remove the SSD and replace it then boot... This is very strange and I am completely lost here. Again, I have only had the hard drive for a few months and I love it, but I need to find out what is causing this issue. Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm regularly testing new kernels / distributions, so at first I thought it's a bug in one of these, but after a lot of experiments I doubt that - I can reproduce the same issue even with older kernels that I've used without any issue.

 

Interestingly enough, this only affects writes - the reads seem to be working just fine (easily >2GB/s in sequential workload), but only 2MB/s in writes. Not a filesystem issue either - this happens even with simple dd writing /dev/nvme0n1 directly.

 

I've tried to install the newest firmware using the isdct tool (v 3.0.0), and `isdct show` now reports this:

My 750 1.2TB is always showing Firmware update, but when I go into Firmware update the update button is always greyed out.

I have updated to the Intel Solid-State Drive toolbox 3.4.1.

According to the FAQ I should be upgrading the firmware via the Solid-State Drive toolbox in Windows and not the firmware update tool.

Any Help??

Hi all,

 

 

On my
server (HPE DL380 G9) I have a Problem with my P3608 4TB Card.

After about 3 months in operations, I lose the first controller after a reboot, the second one by the next reboot. And now, I can’t access the card with the isdct tool. It seems that the controller is offline.

 

Short description:

I have created a raid 0 with two cards (one file system whit 7.4 TB capacity).
I use a Debian 8 system with the newest SSD firmware (8DV101F0)

Does anyone have a good idea?


Thx

Roger
