Upgrading Kingston SSD firmware in Ubuntu?

Ask Ubuntu Asked by Daniel Rosehill on November 28, 2021

I’m having problems with my second Kingston SSD in the past few years.

The folks here have raised the possibility that I might need to update the firmware.

I’m about to buy a new SSD and reinstall the whole system, so it’s worth a shot.

I see that Kingston does maintain an SSD Manager but that it’s only available for Windows. I had no luck using Wine and can’t currently get a Windows 10 ISO to load onto VMWare.

Does anybody know of any other way to upgrade the firmware?
