I purchased some MFG refurbed 400GB Intel DC S3610 drives from Amazon (84.99/ea, if anyone cares). When they arrived, I noticed they were Dell drives (not mentioned, but not a big deal). They came with DL22 firmware, and I see there is now a DL2D firmware available (actually 3 new firmwares). I tried downloading the dell DUP package, but it doesn't run on my windows system. I googled for hours trying to find a way to do it, but that didn't help. Finally, I tried sticking them in a Poweredge R230 I have, rebooted into the lifecycle manager, and did a firmware update there...except it didn't find any available updates for the drives.
Normally this wouldnt be an issue, but there are some stability updates in these updates, so I would prefer to apply them if possible. Does anyone know a way to update dell drives outside of a dell? FWIW, I tried using Intels SSD toolkit, and it says to contact Dell.
Thanks!
