Signs of a bad Intel SSD firmware

[zod96]

I'm trying to figure out if something is wrong with my intel drive with the new firmware or my monitor is dying. I have the firmware that was pulled running in my SSD drive now. for about a month no problems. Now all of a sudden my display goes crazy it, starts getting all scrambled then loses signal then comes back on. It does this every few minutes or so. What are the signs of the bad firmware? Or could it be my monitor. I tried a different power outlet and also a different DVI cable same result.

The problem with the firmware was that it was instantly bricking drives. If you installed it and the drive wasn't bricked, I doubt it was the firmware.

Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking. Luckily the monitor is still under warranty. I'll send off an email to doublesight and see it they can replace it.

Sounds like your graphics card or monitor is about to die to me. I doubt it has anything to do with your SSD.

Well if its the monitor or video card they both are under warranty thank god
