Warnings for SSD Toolkit

WARNINGS:

When using the Firmware Updater feature of the SSD Toolkit, make absolutely certain that the firmware file/version that you are upgrading or downgrading to is compatible with the SanDisk SSD you are working with. Use of the incorrect firmware version can cause your SSD to become permanently un-useable. Contact SanDisk technical support if you are in doubt prior to attempting update.

The firmware update process is done at your own risk. Before trying to update the firmware, back up or make copies of all important files. If the firmware update process is interrupted or failed, your SanDisk SSD might not function properly.

Attempting to upgrade firmware through another type of bus (ex. USB/FireWire/SCSI) other than SATA/IDE is considered experimental and may permanently damage your SSD. The Firmware Updater will give you an “Experimental Features” warning pop-up when you attempt an update if the SSD is not connected directly through a SATA/IDE bus.
