Best regards, --=20 J=C3=A9r=C3=B4me PS: It took me a while to find a way to get the latest firmware for that drive, so here is some additional info: the Z6ED_019_233.E aka LTT_Ultrium_5-SCSI_Z6ED_STANDALONE.frm firmware is available inside a package not blocked by HPE paywall: https://downloads.hpe.com/pub/softlib2/software1/sc-windows/p368283668/v12= 4587/cp031432.exe https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=3D7271242&swItemI= d=3DMTX_afc26488547047b2b55cec874c&swEnvOid=3D4138#tab4
