This package provides a utility to upgrade firmware on certain serial ATA
(SATA) hard drives (HDDs) for the supported workstation models and operating
systems. The firmware upgrade provides a preventative firmware fix for a known
issue.
The utility included in this package upgrades the firmware on the following
Seagate 7200 rpm SATA Hard Drives that shipped on HP Workstations:
Seagate Model Number: HP Part Number:
ST3500620AS 461123-001
ST750630AS 460315-002
ST31000340AS 464263-001
Firmware Revision: HP12 through HP24
NOTE: The included utilities check to ensure that an affected hard drive model
is installed before upgrading the firmware. If the correct hard drive model is
not found, the firmware is not upgraded.
The new firmware fixes a well-publicized issue that could render the drive
inoperable after a power cycle. Although the chances of a drive failure are
minimal, HP recommends that all appropriate hard drives be upgraded as a
preventative measure. After the upgrade, the firmware revision will be HP26.
The included utility creates a DOS bootable USB key that will contain all the
files to update the identified hard drives.
To create or modify the bootable medium, follow the instructions in the
MAKEIT.TXT file, which is located at the top level of the installed folder tree.
