Hello, I just bought the

Samsung EVO 970 PLUS 2TB.

 

Am going to install in a Apple Mac, but other users report the disk won’t work with OSX with the initial firmware, but will work after firmware update.

 

My disc was produced in 2019-08-22.

 

Will it then have the initial firmware, or the newer updated firmware? THANKS

there is no way to know that for sure, i would suggest you to plug it into a working windows 10 computer and update the firmware or check it from there

I dont have a working Windows 10 computer with a vacant PCIe slot, or no need to post here. :smiling-face:

 

I ultimately broke the factory sealing of the package, thus not able to return to seller if unusable to me. I solved my issue by following this guide, just to disclose my SSD already had the updated firmware. Thanks
