I have a bunch of these 2.5 10K 1.8TB SAS drives I would like to update the firmware on. I am unable to locate the Dell firmware SE2B which was released in 2023. What are my chances of getting the Seagate firmware for the ST1800MM0129 to update? The drives are the exact same model number with ST and DL being the only difference.

I did post this question on the Dell forum and received a response that firmware SE2B exist, but Dell does not provide OEM drive firmware separately. The ones I have were brand new so I'll use them as-is in my homelab, but I did grab one for cheap that I'm going to try to crossflash just for fun.
