I have Samsung's MZALQ256HAJD-000L1 and LVFS had updates for
it, I think couple of times over last few years.
Fedora/fwupdmgr applied those updates with no issue.
When one has a single laptop/desktop then removing and
attaching disk it to a windows or doing an usb-iso boot to
do fw update is probably not a big issue, but imagine - and
it should not be hard to image - you have a few or more
computers running whatever operations you run - LVFS has no
competition.
When I look for any hardware, but specifically here NVMes,
it is, in this very order:
a) LVFS support,
b) 4k LBA specific feature,
c) other features relevant to Linux support/compatibility
d) performance
e) price
Not to mention when you have a rack full of more/less
"generic" hardware, how then LVFS is comes as a savior -
separate case are big players such as HP, Dell, IBM, etc.
who usually supply their own HW/FW management software
solutions.--
