We haven't lost a server yet and determined the root cause to be hard drive firmware. Should we wait for a reason to change firmware before upgrading the drive firmware?
Thank you in advance for your response.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Also note that not many (if any) hard disk manufacturers provide online firmware updates for Windows.

If you say that it is not effective to go hunting for single files, I agree - I have not looked whether there are bundles available. I don't have to deal with lots of servers so a CD is good enough for me.
You might want to look into the SmartStart scripting toolkit which can be used to build your own solution.
