| Post subject: | Retrieve disk firmware |
Hi all! Is there a tool available out there which lets your retrieve the disk controller as well as the disk drive firmware version? I'm talking about all kinds of drives - HDD, SDD and something that works across all vendors. I'm working on Windows. If there is an in-built utility, like WMI, which can retrieve the firmware, that would be ideal. Otherwise a 3rd party tool is fine as well. I only need to retrieve the firmware, not update it. |

Those seem like repair tools. I'm looking for firmware retrieval tools. Also, something that is free. Open source is even better. |

Access to firmware requires the use of vendor specific commands (VSC) which are not publicly documented. Moreover, firmware is modularised, so it's not just a matter of dumping a single binary image. Go to the HDD Guru Files area and download some examples. https://files.hddguru.com/download/PC-3000-UDMA%20Support/ |
