Hi guys ,
I just got my SSD and was wondering, how should I install the drivers and firmware, should I install the drive first then install the drivers? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I do not believe that there is a firmware update for this drive yet.

You can install the Samsung driver either as part of the OS (integrated into image) or after, either way is fine as MS has a default NVMe driver that is 100% compatible. The only thing the driver installer won't let you do is install without a Samsung NVMe drive installed, it has to see the drive for the package to install.

If you are talking about Magician (to check for firmware updates), you can install that before or after, either way is fine.
