nothing on the Internet. Easier to find the firmware you require and download it to the HDD

Andi not going to happen.

If your trying to change OEM on a Seagate for example give up now :O)

If your trying to change upgrade FW to a newer FW rev of same OEM then thats quite simple.

PC3000 SCSI is limited

shit

i have e.g. a fujitsu MBA3300RC or other types with FW 5701 (special FW for Fujitsu Siemens Primergy Servers),
but there is no chance to become this FW from Fujitsu Siemens to flash other MBA3300RC ("normal" HDs are cheaper), i must buy the HD from Fujitsu Siemens but because a "special" FW on it is. :evil:

i have a FW from FS for a MAP3735MC and i flash other MAP3735MC, works fine

.

shit happens
