Hello,  I recall and older drive firmware kit, misread 5.2.10 as 5.2.1, hence the error message.  I do believe that the newest kits require 6.x firmware.  There are so many benefits to 6.x, especially with VMware, that all customers should be running 6.0.11 as a BARE minimum.   From the Drive FW install PDF Array Firmware Too Old If the firmware running on the member is not at the minimum required version, the following message is displayed: # seal1grp > update 15:03:56 Updating from kit file "kit_v9.0_DriveFw_2663786033.tgz” Starting Disk Firmware Update... V9.0 ...Initializing support libraries... ERROR: The minimum supported version for this procedure is 6.0.0. You are running V4.3.5 Entering cleanup phase... Please Wait... Please contact technical support. Regards,   Don 
I have a drive that I got with KD03 on it and I need to update it to KD0A the problem is the firmware tool I had to do this I ran when I was on 5.2.6 and now I'm on 5.2.10. The message I get back for using this tool is: ERROR:  The minimum supported version for this procedure is V5.2.5. You are running V5.2.10 If I try to use the listed on the site v9 method it runs but gives me: ERROR:  The minimum supported version for this procedure is V6.0.0. You are running V5.2.10   I feel like I'm using a controller firmware value that is not allowing me to perform hard drive upgrades.  I really do not want to upgrade to 6.0 is this my only option?
