Update Priority

The following sections list the drive firmware updates by software version and product ID. Each update is assigned a priority to indicate

when to perform the update:

• Recommended: Dell recommends applying this update during your next scheduled update cycle. The update contains feature

enhancements or changes that will help keep your system software current and compatible with other system modules (firmware,

BIOS, drivers and software).

• Urgent: Dell highly recommends applying this update as soon as possible. The update contains changes to improve the reliability and

availability of your Dell system.

• Optional: Dell recommends the customer review specifics about the update to determine if it applies to your system. The update

contains changes that impact only certain configurations, or provides new features that may or may not apply to your environment.

NOTE:

Storage Center version 6.6.x and later supports plug-and-play discovery for most new drive introductions. Drive

firmware package updates are not needed to accept new drives. Plug-and-play discovery support for 4K sector drives (8 TB

and 10 TB) requires Storage Center version 7.1.1 or later.
