Even though the procedure is intended to be used for Windows-running computer, it does work with the Mac:
- Download the file entitled M5S80_iso.zip.
- It includes an .iso archive file which can be used once unzipped.
- Burn the .iso archive on a CD without mounting it with any applications (Disk utility, Toast, or any burning application).
- Install Samsung HD in your Mac (internal SATA, not in an external enclosure), then force your Mac Intel to boot from the optical drive by pressing « C » key during booting.
- Once the firmware will be completed, switch off you Mac, then reboot from an external HD including OS X or from Apple OS X DVD. The Samsung HD should now behave normally… well as expected.
