After wiping out my Ubuntu installation with Windows 10 Pro and running the firmware upgrade, I discovered that it was an upgrade to the version I already have (48811QD). I also tried a separate DOS firmware upgrade program that Dell sent to me by e-mail, with the same result:
Model: CX2-8B256-Q11 NVMe LITEON 256GB Current FW: 48811QD No Firmware Upgrade Needed(N01) I reinstalled Ubuntu but this time with the Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel version 4.8.0.58.29 installed by Ubuntu 16.04.2, just to see whether the error happens again. My home directory is safe on a secondary drive this time. At this point, if the Lite-On drive fails as it did before, I guess I'll just buy the Samsung 960 EVO SSD (MZ-V6E250BW) as a replacement and see whether Dell will let me return the Lite-On Technology CX2 NVMe Series SSD (CX2-8B256) for a refund. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1694596 Title: LiteOn NVMe issue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1694596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
