I have well i can get 3000 1tb 3.5 HDD but they wont work on normal pc even with motherboard bios updated i need to update there
firmware to make them compatiable with pc's god bless china ah.

Hard drives that have specific firmware updates available usually have them available in a simple-to-use package from the manufacturer's website (e.g. Seagate's firmware update ISOs for their 7200.11 drives)

Outside of this there is really no such thing as "updating the firmware"

well i would only be updating by iso but if i had a firmware 7200.09 can i update this with firmware 7200.11 ? i
And wonce i burn to cd i put formated disk into pc and load disc on boot and it updates ?
If there is no firmware do i get the next close one ?

These are completely different drives


No, if there is no update then there is no need to update

These questions would all be more appropriately directed towards Seagate tech support. I'm sure they can point you in the right direction.

@funkoligy,
tell all the truth about that stock of Hdd...
In any case if they are intentionally damaged or firmware is missing/failing or the drive require further rework, you need specialistic tools (harware) and will be a time consuming process. If you were thinking about making easy money from them , as they are 1Tb and .11 this will end in a lot of troubles.
