Command Line Online Update Tool

If you have started experiencing all sorts of issues with your SSD, then it might be a sign that it is time to run a benchmark and determine the cause of the slow performance. Command Line Online Update Tool is a small command line interface based application that enables you to monitor, improve, clean and manage your OCZ solid state drive more efficiently.

Does not include a UI and addressed advanced users

First off, while the application is the non-interface alternative to OCZ SSD Utilty, you should know that it includes some differences in the range of products it supports. For instance, you can install and update the BIOS for only a handful of drivers, namely ZD6000/6300, Z-Drive 4500, RevoDrive 350 and Z-Drive 6000, with the CLI utility.
The lack of a GUI makes the program unappealing to users who are not familiar with command lines. On the other hand, it provides advanced users with an environment where they can perform various cleaning, upgrading or tweaking tasks faster.

Enables you to debug, upgrade and format drives seamlessly

Similarly to its interfaced sibling, the program allows you to perform a wide variety of tasks that can enhance the overall functionality of you SSD drive. Therefore, you can update the BIOS of the drive using the corresponding package or RAW file with the serial number or identifier.
In addition, you can securely wipe data, making it unrecoverable, retrieve the debug log so you can check for potential errors or alerts, run the power loss protection test and set the polarity of the activity signal, just to name a few of the operations you can perform. In case you do not know how to perform a certain task, then you can type -help to view a detailed list of the actions available.

A lightweight tool for managing your SSD drive

Command Line Online Update Tool, or CLOUT for short, is a small and efficient program that enables you to manage your solid state drive so that it runs at its optimal reading and writing speeds.
