I have a Samsung 840 EVO that is running EXT0BB6Q. Everything that I find indicates that this is the version with the slowdown and that I need to update to EXT0DB6Q.

However, when I try to download the 840 EVO firmware from Samsung's site (https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/download/tools/) which lists DB6Q as the lastest version it *actually* downloads BB6Q the old version. It does this for either "SATA SSD-840 EVO Firmware" or "SATA SSD-840 EVO Firmware for Mac".

Suggestions on where to get the update?
