![]() ![]() The algorithm for choosing a preferred driver is really quite good but it’s not infallible. “More Optimal” is always a good choice and is generally at the top of the offerings as the one most preferred by SDIO itself. If you have a choice between signed and not signed you’d probably choose signed but if that didn’t work you might be willing to try alternatives. On the other hand if a newer driver got installed that broke a device, you’d be looking to install an older driver, probably one around the same vintage as the device. Here’s a thing: if you’re trying to solve a problem with a malfunctioning device and SDIO has an “Updated” driver, you’d probably go ahead and install that because there’s a reasonable chance that might solve your problem. ![]() But this isn’t the case, to cover a wide variety of situations you need to have options. If that were absolutely true there would be no need to have 16.7GB of drivers on hand. ![]() There is no absolute rule to say that “Updated” drivers should always be installed. SDIO gives you options because sometimes you need options. Is it safe to say that I should only update drivers that say “Updated Driver Available”? There’s no set day of the week, it’s whenever Sam gets to it. If you check once a week you’ll be pretty much up to date. There are two torrents it checks for updates: the first is the SDIO torrent which includes the application and driver packs, if that torrent is up to date it checks the second torrent which is just the driver packs but is updated more frequently. By default SDIO checks for updates when it starts. ![]()
