Ahoj,
you install prebuilt binaries, so you need to rename your package to samsung_magician-consumer-ssd-bin (i.e. with the "-bin" suffix) and add
samsung_magician-consumer-ssd to the provides and conflicts arrays.
Regards and thanks for the package!
Hello there! I was able to update my older 840 EVO, but it didn't recognized the 850 EVO series. I think this is the first version which was released to the public.
Samsung(R) SSD Magician DC Version 1.0
I have another two versions, which I'd like to publish in AUR, but the naming convention is so diverse for the current package and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/samsung-ssd-dc-toolkit/. Would you mind weather we can we change and agree on a naming convention to make it easier for the community? Really looking forward to you answer
For those of you using alternative downloaders (like aria2) having trouble getting the sources to work, here is a patch that tells Dropbox to provide a direct download.

@sudhanshu502 @inox I'm creating a new package samsung-ssd-dc-toolkit using the source you suggest. Officially it supports 983 ZET, 983 DCT, 883 DCT and 860 DCT. Not so sure about other models ... ;)
Thanks inox. It does work for me. Output of:

Dear oberon2007, could you take a look at that static binary (3 years newer than yours), that supports bunch of other drives :)
"https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/global.semi.static/Samsung_SSD_DC_Toolkit_for_Linux_V2.1"
Get it with wget, chmod +x, run as root.
Does not work for me...

I guess the only workaround now is to have a copy of Windows on your machine :(

Samsung has stopped providing a Linux version of the 'Magician' for Consumer SSDs. The newer v2.0 only works with Enterprise PM863 and SM863 Series. So this is the older version v1.0. It should still be working with most Consumer SSDs but be aware that this is not the latest updated version of this software! For 983 ZET, 983 DCT, 883 DCT and 860 DCT (and potentially other models) you may try this package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/samsung-ssd-dc-toolkit/
