Firmware patch/update for certain Samsung internal drives including HD204UI.
If the host issues an identify command during an action of writing data in NCQ, the data's writing can be destabilized, and can lead to data loss.
This is relevant for Samsung-model internal drives with the following model numbers:
F4EG HD204UI
HD204UI/Z4
HD204UI/UZ4
HD155UI
HD155UI/Z4
HD155UI/UZ4
To correct this problem, please use the DOS patch that is linked below.
Do not reboot (Ctrl+Alt+Delete) your computer or push the reset button during the firmware patching/flashing process.
Doing so can cause the process to fail and can in some cases destroy the hard drive.
