Note: The download utility will abort if it is not compatible with your current firmware revision. If your firmware version for these models is already SN06 or SN16, your drive does not need a firmware update. This firmware update procedure is for SATA drives attached to standard SATA controllers. The download utility, SeaFlash, may not see drives attached to RAID adapters and you may need to move the drives temporarily to a standard SATA controller to run the firmware update procedure.

For any other Barracuda ES.2 SATA part numbers not listed above, please contact your OEM for support.

The download is an ISO image which will create a bootable CD.  For instructions on how to create a bootable CD please see: How to burn an .iso image onto a CD.
