Can you reflash these with intel firmware ? there is no visible stickers etc on the front of the drives that indicates that these are HPE drives. only the MN number fron nvme list.

very easy if you/buddy has access to hpe server, pop it in that, fire up spp iso, autopatch, be done. literally a few minutes job (and about 30-40 min wait)

I took a closer look and Im on this firmware

NVME Identify Controller:
vid : 0x8086
ssvid : 0x1590
sn : PHLJ2276003G2P0BGN
mn : VO002000KWVVC
fr : 4ICRHPK3


so it seems that these drives are not affected after all ?
