Updating the HGST HDD & SSD firmware

No, i have no script, only E123 has one

Yes I need an unlock or script, but for 1 drive to buy a whole software is not possible! If you offer the script - put it here.

That person, E123, is NOT selling/licensing the software. He's offering a service, remotely, and I believe, charging reasonably, on a per drive basis. Seems to me like a very clever/competent person, who has figured out a bypass for (some/most?) OEM "firmware locks", and the chosen "delivery method" is an ideal way to charge on a "value received" basis.

This drives are oem for SUN/Oracle with customized firmware. There no easy way to change firmware to HGST generic one.

There certainly is no easy way, but maybe there is a hard way?

Do anyone has firmware for HUS724040ALE64DB or HUS724040ALE640 which should be the generic for NETAPP X477_HMKPX04TA07 NA00? MJAOA3B0
