Intel Driver Support Assistant insists that my 660p has a firmware update...

[bumrush]

.. but the linked webpage doesn't appear to have any means to download the update.  Freshly-installed Solidigm Storage Tool also states that the installed firmware is the most recent.

This issue only began to occur after installing Solidigm Storage Tool.  Please advise.

Hello, bumrush.

Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory and Storage support.

As we understand, you are requesting support related to your Intel® SSD 660p Series and the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant. If we inferred correctly, please, review the following information:

1- As mentioned on the new Solidigm Storage Tool (SST), you are already running the latest version of the firmware for your SSD. Please be aware that this is the only tool that you should use to check and perform any firmware update.

2- The issue you are experiencing seems related to the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant (Intel® DSA), providing an inaccurate message claiming that there is a firmware update for your SSD.

We will move your thread to the Intel® DSA support for you to get further assistance related to this tool.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Best regards.
