You can download to all supported drives, all supported unused or hot spare drives, or all supported drives that are not already at this firmware level.
If any used drives are to be updated, you are warned that if a drive firmware download is interrupted, it is possible that the drive will become unusable. For this reason, the controller will not download drive firmware in parallel to all drives, but one drive at a time.
When downloading drive firmware, the controller first checks the vendor and product ID of each drive to determine whether the firmware should be updated, then it updates the drive.
7 Turn the enclosure off, then on after a drive firmware download. This will make sure that the drives use the correct firmware.
