Hello !
I recently bought a couple of PM1735 drives on eBay.
I have been able to update two of them to the latest firmware I could find. And it enabled a couple of new features (32 namespaces, SR-IOV, etc.).
However, the last drive I bought refuses the firmware :
Does anyone knows how to find the name of the OEM selling this drive ?
Note: the format 4kiB + 8B looks strange to me. Does it ring a bell to you ?
