Drive Model Firmware Matrix?

[Sandy Wood]

Is there a drive model firmaware matrix out there anywhere that shows all hp/compaq drives and their latest firmware levels?

You can get the latest HDD firmware information by drive model off the web from the following web page:

You can also get a matrix from the Firmware CD based on its contents by clicking on the first link in the Notes section on the web page for a Firmware CD. For the latest CD that has been released, 7.61, the web page is

The only matrix I'm aware of is the model number to spare matrix:

You can go directly the the firmware download page and select the model number and see what the latest firmware is:

Hi,

The attached matrix was posted on these forums some time ago, and I kept a copy.

I very much doubt that it's up to date, but I still find it useful when checking part numbers etc.

Anyone know whether a current public version of this exists ?

Cheers,

Rob
