Sandforce-based Kingston SSD firmware can be updated with a dedicated vendor utility.
It is useful when a supported drive needs a firmware fix or maintenance update. Firmware updates can fail or affect stored data, so back up important files, confirm the exact drive model, and avoid power loss during the process.
