I have a drive that I got with KD03 on it and I need to update it to KD0A the problem is the firmware tool I had to do this I ran when I was on 5.2.6 and now I'm on 5.2.10.

The message I get back for using this tool is:

ERROR:  The minimum supported version for this procedure is V5.2.5. You are running V5.2.10

If I try to use the listed on the site v9 method it runs but gives me:

ERROR:  The minimum supported version for this procedure is V6.0.0. You are running V5.2.10

 

I feel like I'm using a controller firmware value that is not allowing me to perform hard drive upgrades.  I really do not want to upgrade to 6.0 is this my only option?
