-Just updated my ST1000340AS! After connecting to PC only realized that the actual firmware is SD15, not SD35 as printed on the drive. And the latest firmware updater also will update all drives, no matter retail or OEM, any part numbers (-300, -303, -568, etc.) - as stated on the updater screen.
-Hmm, I noticed after the firmware updated, my BIOS auto-detect the ST1000340AS using CHS now, not LBA like before (during POST splash screen). Anybody could confirm this? Regards. This post has been edited by Musafir_86: Jan 25 2009, 10:27 AM |
