It seems they have a great relationship with many different organizations for listing what seems to be really outstanding items. However, to hear this happened to someone else makes me both feel good about not using them again and also sad at the same time. I still wonder if some simple change at the senior management level would fix all of this or if something is running much deeper... Terrible to hear you had the same problem.

Since we have so many disks, we researched and found out we could use the LSI (the manufacturer of the RAID cards we are using) megaraid cli command like so: MegaCli -PdFwDownload -PhysDrv '[58:0]' -f 0405G05.bin -a1 And everything seems to be happy.

Yes, I did get that before and it bounced. I assumed it was just the address that was bogus but now I see it is because of an 'illegal attachment'. So... I will try a different method! Bottom line is I will get it to you. Hmmm… Yes, I did get that before and it bounced. I assumed it was just the address that was bogus but now I see it is because of an ‘illegal attachment’.

The only site that appears to have had it available (3ware, http://www.3ware.com/kb/Article.aspx?id=15592) is down. WD tech support claims the firmware update doesn't exist, and that I need to RMA my 100 drives that are having problems to get replacements back with the new firmware.
