silently downgrading them is how 512MB dram instead of 1GB. 2-4TB Models have QLC variants.

I like your thinking, and I would certainly love to see this selling at $25... However, I have a feeling that somewhere around $35 is probably the hard floor for this. I think the reason we are seeing prices fall right now is because of an over supply of nand flash. Since they are currently making significant cuts to production, I worry that a correction in the other direction will be coming soon. My suggestion would be if you think you will need this in the next year, I would buy now!

This is a well known bug. There needs to be some drive activity for the firmware update to work. Counter to the usual wisdom, you'll want to do something like run a benchmark on the drive while attempting the firmware update. It worked for me and many others.

I don't know much about the rules (or maybe the algorithms) on this site . . . curious if anyone could tell me why this particular deal keeps popping up among the new deals near the top of the main page? TIA

CSE will not update mine. It just gets an error and like you said, it can't be downloaded anywhere.

Exactly. I should have mentioned it.

Just copy a big file that's going to take a minute, and then try again and your SSD should show up and update.
