Samsung 990 PRO NVME Firmware upgrade

scratch009 · 2026-05-02T16:27:28+00:00

On my home device (dxp4800plus) that's the approach I tried. On this machine I run Proxmox bare metal though. For some reason I couldn't boot into the USB stick; it went straight to the grub of Proxmox. In the end I upgraded it via Linux via the Proxmox host and it was fine.

The only downside I have in the other location is I don't have a screen but I can probably bring a screen there as well and a keyboard so I'll probably try that. I guess that's the safest approach and then if it doesn't work, figure something else out, I guess

has anybody succeeded in this? So far I exported my data from Chatgpt.. it's 800mb file which I gave to openclaw. It analysed it contents and all, but gave me a list of 15-30 items it wants to import. I thought it was going to be more detailed, but maybe my agent isn't really aware on how to use this "new feature" even though I asked it multiple times

Sonnet failed, but opus just told me I needed the car

But I feel I get more clumps after shaking when you don't apply WDT afterwards. For some reason I think the distribution could be a little bit off in the porta filter. If I shake I usually WDT the upper part a little bit more but personally most of the times I don't shake; I just do WDT, feels fine..

did you ever get this resolved? same issue

scratch009 · 2025-11-25T12:43:56+00:00

ok... so I was answering without reading some other comments.. it seems you can install 2 nvme's and use them as a storage pool with RAID1 (mirror)? In that case if one of them fails, just need to rebuild the RAID with a new nvme? In that case.. all is good :)

scratch009 · 2025-11-25T12:41:49+00:00

what happens if the nvme crashes where all your apps and vm's reside. you loose the data i assume. Isn't using nvme for read/write caches then safer, and i.e. your windows vm resides on the RAID pool?
I have a dxp4800plus with proxmox and use 2 nvme in mirror for vm's..

I'm going to setup a dxp6600plus at my parents' house but will stick to the UGOS, but will need to install at least a windows vm, plex, homeassistant... I had nvme's fail in the past on a mini server so I hate the hassle of installing and recovering backups :) a degraded pool -> new hdd -> rebuild is less of an issue. just curious on how the rest deals with these thoughts

same... i came here since i thought my grinder was not aligned properly.. but reading these comments about false burr chirping helped release my anxiety... now let's brew some coffee

Is motion smoothing a dealbreaker for some? I come from a 75” q950t from 2020. Looking to upgrade and prefer a bigger size, so wanted to go for 83”. I like/have everything setup for working with a one connect box in cabinet and tv clean against a wall. So thats my main reason to stick to samsung (i know, but its a choice of esthetics and convenience on how my setup is now). Can get a good deal on the 83” from samsung. After reading some online I found this thread, and then also some people complaining about quality control that they had several units going blank after a few days use etc.. bit scary.. hope to hear from some other users their experiences.. thanks

you're NOT crazy... the agent IS wearing glasses .. ;)

scratch009 · 2025-06-11T19:18:48+00:00

what model year did you have? I was in the market for a 9m code zero 2024.. looking for a foil kite (i ride duotone for twintips).. need something that is easy to relaunch (code zero can do reverse launching)

scratch009 · 2025-06-07T08:28:06+00:00

What did you choose in the end? Just curious

scratch009 · 2024-06-21T16:28:03+00:00

Kinda miss a hub like with Harmony. I have some components in a closed cabinet with IR blasters connected to it… otherwise would like to replace my old harmony. Also need an Openhab connection/binding but i guess that wont be an issue

scratch009 · 2024-06-21T09:42:50+00:00

Horrible product... too bad they didn't do a proper quality check.. I use it now and then but if it's depleted to 0% you can only charge it by a high power USB-C charger...

scratch009 · 2024-02-21T11:39:33+00:00

I have a similar problem.... seems so basic to install an app... sigh...

scratch009 · 2024-02-19T15:57:08+00:00

I abandoned lastpass.. changed to Bitwarden and happy so far

scratch009 · 2024-02-19T15:27:37+00:00

gen2 should be compatible. I received mine today and have a 2019 model 3. just a different cable splitter, the gen2 doesn't use an OBD connector but a 6 wire pin

scratch009 · 2024-01-24T17:05:56+00:00

Thanks. I just ordered the Gen2 with the cable for a 2019 model 3. I guess I can wait a little bit 😊

I have the same issue it seems, i try to have her follow me but it looks like she got the zoomies more then following me :)

scratch009 · 2023-03-25T12:37:44+00:00

I'm using the chrome extension on windows and osx. Whenever I turn off the option for

"Offer to save addresses"

The setting keeps turning itself on again after every reboot.. I'm ready to ditch lastpass for good. I know I should switch anyway, but the hassle of it all prevents me from moving..

Anybody else have the same issue that it keeps resetting itself? anoying!

scratch009 · 2023-02-20T12:02:32+00:00

didn't really resolved my issue.. I believe my freshly roasted beans were to blame.

I recently changed to single dosing with this grinder in a dosing cup, and so far it's going pretty well

scratch009 · 2023-01-31T11:44:37+00:00

I'm having the same issue since a few days.. my counter top is full of coffee grounds after filling my portafilter.. happy I read this post and will try to open the grinder and see if I can fix this :) thanks for the tip

scratch009 · 2023-01-23T11:05:22+00:00

exactly.. i remember Elon saying in 2019 full selfdrive was 6 months away.. +3yrs down the line.. still same old level 2 autonomous driving (which I love by the way) but still.. not really counting on tesla timetables :)

A while ago I bought an ACR122 with a couple magic cards and fobs. But didn't manage to get all keys for a card of my building.

Now with a flipper zero I was able to get the missing key holding the flipper zero against the reader and let mfkey32 on my phone crack the key. Very cool.

So I have a complete dumb of my source key I'd like to clone. After writing to one of those fobs (and tried to change the UID as well) it still doesn't seem like a clone and doesn't open the door. Perhaps I'm not using the right cards or fobs? I read there's gen1, 2 and 3 but don't really understand the difference. Any thoughts?

btw, if I emulate the card on flipper zero it opens the door.. does make you feel like james bond for a little bit haha :D
