Update Hard Drive firmware in TS-419P+
Posted: Sun Jan 02, 2011 7:34 pm
Hi,
I'm running a ts-419p+ with 4 x Seagate 2tb drives in raid 5.
They are model ST32000542AS and running firmware CC34.
I notice there is a CC35 firmware out there and wondered how I go about upgrading the drives firmwares.
Can they be done in the QNAP or do I have to add them to a computer running Windows or Leopard. (have accesss to both)
If I have to pull them and flash them from within a computer can I just pull one out at a time, plug it into a windows machine, flash it and put it back in?
If I do this when I put it back into the NAS will it have to rebuild the array before I pull another one to do the same?
Many thanks,
Dave.
