Firmware for Oracle HUS1560SCSUN600G?

September 9th, 2015, 6:25

I've got a couple of these SAS drives which are Oracle versions of the Hitachi (HGST) Ultrastar 15K600 600GB drive.

One of them has current firmware (A7A0), but the other has pretty old firmware (A700) installed.

Where can I get the recent firmware updates (can't find anything on Oracle's web site).

Failing Oracle firmware is it OK to "Cross Flash" with (e.g.) the Dell OEM firmware or the original Hitachi firmware (if that can be found)?

Thanks
Dave
