quick m4 question...

[dokko]

Just arrived, been hearing they need updated firmware before installation to get better speeds but mine on the back states: Firmware Rev: 010G

Am I right in thinking nothing needs doing?

Quick response would be awesome.

cheers

Some people have been having problems with 010G, give it a go and see how it goes. If not roll back to 000F. 000F can be found here: http://edge.crucial.com/firmware/m4/000F/Crucialm4_000F.zip

My understanding is that 010G firmware update is for Windows 8. Which I am now running, I decided to go from 000F to 010G. No problems so far. Benchmarks show a slight increase in read speeds, but still slower than previously in Windows 7. If you are running Windows 7, I’d be tempted to downgrade to 000F, regardless of the 010G’s problems just for the extra performance boost.
