      Dear Paul Adams,

      I see, firmware, not BIOS. Unfortunately we do not have any firmware upgrades for this drive either. I'm sorry about that.

      If you have any additional information, please let me know.

      Thank you,

      Dear Paul Adams,

      A BIOS upgrade is not something we provide. The BIOS resides on the controller that you are using, the AIC 7902 controller. You would go through them to obtain the BIOS upgrade.

      If you have any additional questions, please let me know.

      Thank you,
