Hello. I just bough 840 evo 250gb ssd. My question is, can i install new firmware and apply the fix on empty ssd ? (i would just connect it to power and sata cable and apply the fix) Or is it better to install windows on it and than apply the new firmware and fix. The ssd will have windows installed on it but i can install windows next week. So i want to know if i can run the fix and firmware before?

Ty for your answers

I think the update needs to be run on a pc.
Most likely you have the latest firmware so no update will be required.
Samsung magician software will tell you the status and invite you to update the firmware if necessary.
I would do that if needed before installing windows and apps. If the update fais for whatever reason you have lost nothing.
