Weird problem with firmware update for Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD

Hi everyone,

This is my first Hackintosh build so any help/suggestion is welcomed.

I decided to build myself a hackintosh running by using the hardware recommendation from tonymacx86:

But unfortunately I bought the wrong SSD - Samsung 970 EVO Plus. I thought the my problems are solved when a new firmware from Samsung was published and the problem with this SSD, for MacOS was fixed.

I immediately started to install it by making a bootable USB Stick with the iso image of the fimware.

The ways I tried to make the USB bootable:

- from a Mac: Etcher

- from a Windows: Rufus

- from a Ubuntu: UNetBootin

Every time I get the same result:

This is a picture of the screen at which it freezes:

Any idea what might be the cause for this?

Hardware:

CPU: i7-9700K

GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 630 - integrated

Mobo: Asus Z390-A PRIME

SSD: Samsung 970 evo plus 500GB
