I don’t know, either Samsung actually listened to my complaint on 19th November or it’s all just a pure coincidence Because here it is, a major overhaul of the Samsung Magician software. This time in version 5.0 which comes with fixed SATA and AHCI detection as well as entirely new interface (which looks absolutely amazing I have to add) and new tray icon.

This has to be by far the best interface design I’ve seen in years. It’s super minimalistic, looks really nice and is very responsive. And as you can see, very informative as well. But not too cluttered. Asian companies used to be famous for their botched interface designs, but this thing, this defies old stereotypes and puts many western designs to shame. Really nice job Samsung!

I wonder if this will coincide with them finally fullfilling their promise to implement opal sed functionality on the 950 Pro series. (it was/still is promised in a "future firmware update" that to my knowledge, has yet to happen).

So, on the old software did the Rapid Mode actually not work, even though it said it was enabled?

Is it normal that the program refuses to work with a SSD connected via USB? I've got 850 EVO here an it says not supported, and invalid serial number. WTF?

The Rapid Mode did actually work in v.4.x.x versions - so this is crap

Did they hide or get rid of the "Performance Optimization"? It's about the only thing I ever used.

From what I'm reading, it sounds like they gave it a facelift, but ripped much of its guts out. Not very impressed if so.

I've used this software when I first got my 850 EVO drive but after a while things just went weird, so again I give it a go.

It is a lot nicer looking and thanks to the op @RejZoR for the heads up :peace:

What is rapid mode all about, can someone with real knowledge about it please let me / us late bloomers know whats it all about..

Here is rapid mode off and then on, but the numbers... that's what's really confusing me.. :fear:
