I tried to make it simple: you provide an Samsung Firmware ISO file as an argument and it'll execute the payload to update your firmware: ```bash # example -samsung-ssd-fwupdate Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso +samsung-ssd-fwupdate -i Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso +samsung-ssd-fwupdate --install Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso # same as above ``` As a bonus (and mostly for my convenience) you can print a list of the [firmware ISOs listed on Samsung website](https://semiconductor.samsung.com/consumer-storage/support/tools/#firmware) with the `-l` or `--list` flag, or download them interactively with the `-d` or `--download` flag +Can also list the 'last-modified' date of the ISOs with the `-ld`/`--list-dates` switch. + ## License MIT |
