Windows 10: Samsung Magician

Version 4.7 out today.... get it at Major Geeks

 

Just installed.. and before anyone asks, n,o it still doesn't see Win10 to enable RAPID. So if you feel really need it, you need to do the work around previously posted.

 

A few interesting changes (at least I think so) in this version of Samsung Magician 4.7.
– Installation needs to be run as administrator. I don't remember this in earlier versions.
– Will only perform Performance Optimization in advanced mode and in background only. (Takes forever)
– Will only perform Performance Optimization on my 840 Evo but not on my 850 Pro.(Could be because it is my boot drive)

Thanks for the link!

 

Thanks, I did not bother to install it.

 

Okay guys found a way to activate RAPID mode for Samsung 850 Evo (850 Series)

Please follow the following to force enable RAPID mode in Samsung Magician 4.7 (Since it does not recognize Windows 10 this is the only way to Activate the same):

1) Download and install the latest version of ProcessHacker2 - Overview - Process Hacker
2) Open Samsung Magician and navigate to the Rapid Mode tab
3) Run ProcessHacker2 as Administrator then find and select the Samsung Magician.exe process in ProcessHacker2, right click and select Miscellaneous -> Windows
4) Search for the item listed with Samsung Magician as the text
5) Drill down and expand MDIClient
6) Find the first item SCort_ChildFrame that is not grayed out and expand it as well as it's SCort_SAT_View item
7) Right click on the Button with the text Enable and select Enabled
8) Click the Enable button in Samsung Magician!









Now enjoy the RAPID mode in Windows 10!!

 

Or you just dig up version 4.4, install that and activate Rapid Mode, and then leave it alone or install a later version without messing with the Rapid Mode settings.

How to enable Rapid mode on Samsun 850 Pro

 

Successive iterations of rapid have moved from using 1 GB of memory through 2 GP to finally 4 GB. Any idea what the setup was in version 4.4 versus 4.6/4.7. I know version 4.6 used up to 4 GB.

 

You're welcome.*Smile

I don't blame you. *Biggrin
I just did it to see if they fixed it. I'm not going to use the work around either, because I was using 4.4 in the preview and had some serious BSODs because of it. They probably haven't fixed it yet.

 

Hello,

Version 4.4 does not recognize EVO 850 (250Gb / 500Gb)


Everything is gray. And nothing works. He asks immediately upgrade to 4.5


With version 4.5 the Rapid Mode is also not possible

Ah, you're right, I missed that and it was established earlier in this thread or another - sorry. Then maybe the "hack" method posted above by rajinder is the only recourse. As for me and RAPID Mode - thanks but no thanks, doesn't do anything for me, not even tickle my fancy.

 

Hello Rajinder,

Hats low



Samsung We Have A Problem LOL


Like a lot. It's three days I want. Samsung unresponsive

Samsung should hire you

With my very best regards

Hello,

I speak the models EVO 850 ... 250 and 500 Gb. I do not know for PRO 850

They are not identical

Right, understood. I think the posts have 4.4 workaround doing OK for the Pro, but member John Pombrio mentions no dice for 850 EVO above in post # 16.

 

My Samsung M.2 SSD is still not fully supported. I can only use the benchmark tool. That's it.
