I recently acquired an unbranded 160GB MLC ioDrive.
After several failed attempts to get my system to start the drive, I was able to download and install VSL 2.3.10, which allowed me to run fio-status. I extracted the following results:
Found 1 ioDrive in this system
Fusion-io driver version: 2.3.10 build 110
Adapter: ioDrive
Low-Profile ioDIMM Adapter SN:20023
External Power: NOT connected
Connected ioDimm module:
fct2: ioDIMM3 SN:18922
fct2 Status unknown: Driver is in MINIMAL MODE:
Firmware is out of date. Update firmware.
ioDIMM3 SN:18922
PCI:2:0.0
Firmware v3.0.0, rev 36867
Geometry and capacity information not available.
If VSL 2.x is running version 5.x firmware, what VSL version is this from? And, given the upgrade path mentioned in the release notes that I "must follow", how do I go about upgrading this card since SanDisk no longer has the older versions available on the web?
Can I safely skip ahead and not brick the drive? Has anyone else dealt with this situation?
Thanks!

1.2.4 -> 1.2.7 -> 1.2.8 -> 2.1.0 -> 2.3.1 -> 3.2.11
