According to
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/bm/de/downloads/ds557652 the Drive in the Listing seems to be at least 2 Firmware Revisions behind (3202T2GB) compared to the latest (3205T2GE and 3205T2GC).
Can we run the Linux Update Tool even though we don't own a Lenovo System ? Is it sufficient that the SSD itself is Lenovo ?
EDIT 1: I gave it a Try ... I could download
lnvgy_fw_drives_all-1.39.11-0_linux_x86-64.bin and
lnvgy_fw_drives_all-1.50.16-0_linux_x86-64.bin.
They don't really run as is (nobody checks if the File is running as User, just complain that they cannot write to
/var/log/Lenovo_Support/ux.log).
Using
binwalk one can somewhat extract the File, but then we are left with a .std File that doesn't really give out its Type via file Command.
Seems to just be Binary File, that's all, approx 1.3MB:
Code:
ls -lh ./_lnvgy_fw_drives_all-1.39.11-0_linux_x86-64.bin.extracted/image/files/3205t2ge.std
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER USER 1,3M Jun 14 2022 ./_lnvgy_fw_drives_all-1.39.11-0_linux_x86-64.bin.extracted/image/files/3205t2ge.std
Opening via
nano shows a few Lines of Header, then it's all Binary and/or encrypted:
