After a firmware update the SSD is no longer bootable / is no longer recognized by the system. Apparently I'm not alone - have several identical messages found. Thought I buy as a branded product. A good brand product in my opinion is one of the product maintenance. Therefore, it leads offered firmware updates when prompted by the manufacturer by also. The renewal of the firmware via the proprietary processes / software has led to the destruction of the SSD. That's a No ... I strongly recommend the purchase!
