DL360p Gen8 Physical Drive Firmware Version

[andy_smaliss]

I have a ProLiant DL360p Gen8 server. My Storage Physical Drive is degraded with its Model EG0600FBVFP Firmware Version HPDC, I was replaced by the Model EG0600FBVFP Firmware Version HPD9 drives. Can I use them or do I need to update the firmware version of the other disks in the array? The array contains 6 disks Model EG0600FBVFP, Firmware Version HPDC of which 3 are Degraded. RAID 1 / RAID 1 + 0 array level.

It is always a good idea to keep firmware current.

Any details why the disks are degraded?

What specific details of disk degradation are interesting?

I am interested in the possibility of using disks in an array with different firmware versions.

I don’t know how to update the FW disk without losing all the data in the array.
